12 Legal Educ. Rev. 269 (2001)
Enhancing Student Learning of Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility in Australian Law Schools by Improving Our Teaching

handle is hein.journals/legedr12 and id is 271 raw text is: Enhancing Student Learning of Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility in Australian Law Schools by Improving Our Teaching M J Le Brun* Which theory for upholding contracts do you find most attractive? The will theory? Contract as bargain? Expecta- tion? Reliance? Contract as promise? I like contract as promise. Why? What resonates about the theory? Give me an example. Visiting Associate Professor, City University of Hong Kong. This pro- ject would not have been undertaken were it not for the generosity of the Committee for University Teaching and Staff Development. ©2001. (2001) 12 Legal Educ Rev 269. The success of a project of this nature depends on the willingness of others to share, to teach, and to learn. The benefits of the project would not been as great were it not for the kindness and generosity of the American law professors with whom I met. I am certain that their efforts will help improve teaching and learning of Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility in Australian law schools. They are (listed in alphabetical order by surname) Rick Abel, Jeff Brand, Kathleen Clark, Clark Cunningham, Heidi Li Feldman, Jay Folberg, Peter Joy, Fred Lederer, John Levy, David Link, David Luban, Carrie Menkel-Meadow, Jim Moliterno, Mitt Regan, Deborah Rhode, Robert E Rodes, Tom Shaffer, Bill Simon, David Wilkins, and Richard Zitrin. I also would like to extend my thanks to Rick O'Dair who was (serendipitously) visiting Stanford University and who shared his ideas about LE/PR education in England with me. The interdisciplinary perspectives that so enriched the workshops would not have been possible were it not for the thoughtful contribu- tions of philosophers and applied ethicists in Australia - Lynn Gillam, Trevor Jordan, Justin Oakley, Ian Thompson, and Robert Young, many of whom I was able to contact on the kind recommendation of Noel Preston, who deserves a special thanks for his networking abili- ties. Nor would the conversations been so fruitful were it not for the students who participated in the Gold Coast and Notre Dame work- shops. An additional vote of thanks is given to those who helped me or- ganise the workshops in Australia: Charles Sampford, Griffith Uni- versity; Chris Roper and his staff at the Centre for Legal Education in Sydney; Guy Powles, Adrian Evans, and Sue Campbell at Monash
