| Abstract: | This teaching note offers examples of kinesthetic learning--acting, drawing, and playing--to enhance all law-related courses. The note explains what these kinesthetic learning activities are, and how and why to use them. Torts is used as an example here, but the exercises can be used for any legal topic, from contracts to agency to securities. Students will increase their classroom engagement and their understanding in all content areas when kinesthetic learning is part of their instruction. The pedagogical benefits of kinesthetic learning are explained and demonstrated in the note and supporting materials. |
