With extensive sample course materials, it offers useful tips for building nuance, creative thinking, and experiential learning into contract drafting curricula. Chapters give detailed definitions and examples of core contract concepts including representations and warranties; covenants; conditions; discretionary authority; and declarations. Exploring complex issues such as ethical negotiation, cross-border transactions and the impact of technology on contracts, it presents a nuanced syllabus that can be adapted for courses that focus exclusively on contract drafting as well as those that contain other elements. The book provides tested examples of exercise sets, grading rubrics, sample contracts and peer-to-peer activities, focusing on engaging students in the dynamics of a client interaction. It turns to neuroscience and learning theory to identify effective pedagogical approaches, giving concrete recommendations for how these can be implemented in the classroom. Professors and instructors teaching contract law, as well as any form of transactional practice will find this book invaluable in developing their courses, with expert guidance on how to boost student understanding and engagement"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction to Teaching contract drafting -- Client meeting simulation : getting started -- Negotiation preparation -- Representations and warranties : getting into the facts -- Covenants : promises, promises -- Conditions : drafting with care -- Discretionary authority : crafting provisions that allow for choice -- Preliminary components : preamble, recitals, words of agreement, definitions, interpretations, and declarations -- Other substantive provisions -- General provisions, otherwise known as 'boilerplate' -- International considerations and contract drafting -- Drafting for a technological age -- Using proper words and tabulation -- Neuroscience and use of creativity in contract drafting -- The pedagogy of teaching contract drafting -- Ethics and contract drafting -- Contract drafting exercises -- Sample contracts and checklist -- Answer key. 650 0 $a Contracts $x Study and teaching $z United States. 650 0 $a Legal composition $x Study and teaching $z United States. 655 7 $a Hornbooks (Law) $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Boyle-Laisure, Robin. $t Teaching contract drafting. $d Cheltenham, UK ; Northampton, Massachusetts : Edward Elgar Publishing Limited, 2023 $z 9781802209365 $w (OCoLC)1373011040 830 0 $a Elgar guides to teaching 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217011731.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=56F18EF4CD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
