Professor Miriam Albert was a presenter at the Southeastern Association of Law Schools’ Annual meeting on August 4th. Professor Albert spoke on a panel entitled “Innovative Teaching Techniques for Clinical and Skills Courses,” one of several Teaching Technique Workshops at the conference. She spoke about the challenges of cleanly characterizing teaching as pure skills or pure doctrine, the political and pedagogical dramas that may ensue, and the challenges of adopting a “skills requirement” in light of the inevitable overlap between skills and doctrine.
