  Deconstructing Legal Analysis: A 1L Primer features:

  • a unique, visual pedagogical method that illustrates a relational analysis of facts, rules, and public policy
  • an interactive approach that consistently encourages students to write down their answers to carefully guided questions
  • a great teaching case, Pierson v. Post, showing how a layperson reads a case as compared to how a lawyer would read the same case
  • useful templates and methods for legal analysis and essay-exam writing, such as IRAC and IRRAC
  • exam-taking tips and guidance that emphasize flexibility, rather than a formulaic approach
