Casebook method information


The casebook method, similar to but not exactly the same as the case method, is the primary method of teaching law in law schools in the United States.[1] It was pioneered at Harvard Law School by Christopher Columbus Langdell.[1] It is based on the principle that rather than studying highly abstract summaries of legal rules (the technique used in most countries), the best way to learn American law is to read the actual judicial opinions which become the law under the rule of stare decisis (due to its Anglo-American common law origin).[1]
