论判决书研习式教学

Teaching of Verdict Research-learning

判决书研习教学应是法学教育的常态,但在中国长期以来却基本处于缺位状态,主要的授课方式仍然是讲授式教学,这不利于学生的主动学习和理论联系实际。为培养学生的司法实践能力,中国有必要借鉴国外尤其是美国和德国法学教育中的判例研习经验,开设专门的判决书研习课程。通过要求学生阅读判决书、整理判决问题点、在课堂上讨论判决争议点以及撰写判决评析等,指导学生更好地学习和理解法律知识并提高学生发现问题、解决问题和法律论证的能力。

The teaching of verdict research-learning should be the normality of legal education,but it has almost been absent for a long time in our country. The main teaching approach is still the lecturing method,which is unhelpful to students’ active learning and integrating theory with practice. To develop students’ ability of judicial practice,China should learn from the experience of case study in foreign legal education,especially the experience of US and German,for reference to offer a special course of verdict research-learning. Through requiring students to read verdicts,write down problems of verdicts,discuss controversies of verdicts in class,and write verdict comments,instruct students to learn and understand legal knowledge better,and promote their ability of discovering and solving problems and the ability of legal argumentation.
