29 Series Editor s Preface Welcome to a new type of casebook. Designed by leading experts in law school teaching and learning, Context and Practice casebooks assist law professors and their students to work together to learn, minimize stress, and prepare for the rigors and joys of practicing law. Student learning and preparation for law practice are the guiding ethics of these books. Why would we depart from the tried and true? Why have we abandoned the legal education model by which we were trained? Because legal education can and must improve. In Spring 2007, the Carnegie Foundation published Educating Lawyers: Preparation for the Practice of Law and the Clinical Legal Education Association published Best Practices for Legal Education. Both works reflect in-depth efforts to assess the effectiveness of modern legal education, and both conclude that legal education, as presently practiced, falls quite short of what it can and should be. Both works criticize law professors rigid adherence to a single teaching technique, the inadequacies of law school assessment mechanisms, and the dearth of law school instruction aimed at teaching law practice skills and inculcating professional values. Finally, the authors of both books express concern that legal education may be harming law students. Recent studies show that law students, in comparison to all other graduate students, have the highest levels of depression, anxiety and substance abuse. The problems with traditional law school instruction begin with the textbooks law teachers use. Law professors cannot implement Educating Lawyers and Best Practices using texts designed for the traditional model of legal education. Moreover, even though our understanding of how people learn has grown exponentially in the past 100 years, no law school text to date even purports to have been designed with educational research in mind. The Context and Practice Series is an effort to offer a genuine alternative. Grounded in learning theory and instructional design and written with Educating Lawyers and Best Practices in mind, Context and Practice casebooks make it easy for law professors to change. I welcome reactions, criticisms, and suggestions; my address is mhschwartz@ ualr.edu. Knowing the author(s) of these books, I know they, too, would appreciate your input; we share a common commitment to student learning. In fact, students, if your professor cares enough about your learning to have adopted this book, I bet s/he would welcome your input, too!

31 Preface to the Second Edition The Second Edition retains what we see as the primary virtues of the First. For students, the book is accessible, but not dumbed- down: without spoon feeding, our framing questions and explanations guide students to key points and doctrines rather than turning Con Law into a doctrinal trea sure hunt. This leaves more class time to explore large themes, under lying policies, and critiques. For professors, this is one of the few Con Law casebooks that you can teach your own way, without having to fight the book. This book offers structure but not stricture, comprehensive coverage without backbreaking bulk. Our Expansion Pack system which to our knowledge remains unique in Con Law casebooks offers numerous supplemental modules that can be added to or substituted for sections in the book. These (along with other supplemental materials) are contained on a new casebook web site, formatted and ready to send out to students electronically. This system allows you to customize your course while still following the book s basic structure. And that structure is quite streamlined. As you can see in the Summary of Contents, the book is or ga nized into five parts of two chapters each, which cover all the essential doctrines of Constitutional Law. The book can be used for any general Con Law course, whether offered in the first semester or later, and whether it covers governmental structure, individual rights, or both. For adopters of the First Edition, our message is this: we have improved and updated the book with only a slight increase in length. Although we ve been selective about incorporating new cases, there have been enough impor tant ones in the past five years that we ve had to cut material in order to make room. But fear not: all material cut from the First Edition remains available in the form of Expansion Packs on the web site. For adopters who teach Constitutional Law to 1L students, we recommend assigning part or all of a chapter- length Expansion Pack entitled Introduction to Constitutional Law and Analy sis. This chapter contains useful information about the vari ous patterns of constitutional cases, how constitutional challenges are litigated, how they reach the Supreme Court, and how to read Supreme Court opinions. For the Second Edition, we ve deci ded to remove this chapter from the print volume to the web site, since it may not be as useful to upper level students. In our book, cases and other primary readings are generally preceded by Guided Reading Questions which highlight key points and doctrines that students should be looking for. Following the primary readings, our Review Questions and Explanations synthesize key points, provide context or clarification to the case just presented, and prompt students to make connections, think critically, and address broader themes. We have made a concerted effort to keep these questions on point and limited in number. Many casebooks provide notes and questions that venture too far into tangents and prove distracting; we believe ours avoid that trap. xxxi

32 xxxii Preface to the Second Edition An additional benefit to students is the book s low cost. Not only is the main volume about 40% less expensive than competing Con Law casebooks, but our annual supplement is provided as a free PDF. We welcome your feedback and suggestions about the book. We have already incorporated some adopters suggestions into the Second Edition. And because the Teachers Manual and web site supplemental materials can be updated on an annual basis, we are in a position to incorporate your suggested improvements without having to wait for a Third Edition.
