试问中国法学院何处去?——以案例教学法在中国语境的遭遇为中心的考察

Where Do Chinese Law Schools Go?——A investigation on the process of case method in China

通过梳理案例教学法在中国法学教育中的遭遇,可以看到中国法学者对该教学方法的态度变迁,同时也可以看到它在中国法学教育实践的发展过程:第一个阶段,组织编撰案例教材(从而引发的案例教学法)的阶段;第二阶段,何美欢教授主导的案例教学法。通过检讨这两个阶段的得与失,提出案例教学法如果还要在中国继续实践,则必须实施严格的、英美法意义上的普通法方能达到教学效果和法学教育改革在这方面的目的。

In China,we can see a changing attitude towards case method by analyzing the process of it.Meanwhile,it can be divided into two stages:firstly,organizing the compilation of case material;secondly,Professor Betty Ho's case method in China.At the end,after reviewing the gains and losses of two stages of its practice in China's reform of legal education,I deliver my suggestions that we must implement a strictly case method like the Anglo-Saxon common law in order to practice it better.
