诊所法律教育本土化研究——基于认知学习理论

Research on Localization of Clinic Legal Education Based on Cognitive Learning Theory

源于美国的诊所法律教育课程是培养学生法律实践能力的优良教学手段,同时也是为社会提供法律援助、化解社会矛盾的有效途径。然而,诊所法律教育引入我国近20年来,"水土不服"的现象十分严重,很多曾经开课的高等院校逐渐压缩甚至删除了该课程。认知学习理论描述了学习者学习实践能力的基本过程,为诊所法律教育的本土化探索提供了理论模型。运用认知学习理论分析诊所法律教育课程的本土化问题,能够为我国的诊所法律教育建构适当的运行机制。据此,依照我国现行《民事诉讼法》关于公民代理的相关规定提出具体相关对策并普遍推行,方能通过诊所法律教育的本土化手段,兼顾高等院校法科学生的实践培养与社会法律援助的有效供给。
