22 Int'l J. Clinical Legal Educ. [1] (2015)

handle is hein.journals/clled22 and id is 1 raw text is: Editorial Walking the talk: clinic and our values Elaine Hall Northumbria University, UK Elaine. Hallonorthumbria. ac.uk Is clinical legal education an inherently moral undertaking? In this issue of the IJCLE, we have three papers linked by their focus on the underpinning values of CLE: whether we can transmit our values through the clinic experience; whether we can most effectively teach ethics through clinic and whether our commitment to and belief in clinic should be expressed by bringing it from the margins to the centre of legal education. There is a common perception amongst educators that we transmit our values tacitly through the curriculum and that, by providing students with a particular kind of learning experience, we create in them specific dispositions. The logical formula appears to run: 1. We embed the values in the structure of the curriculum (e.g. by running a pro bono clinic) 2. We engage students in the activity 3. They absorb the values and become active agents pursuing those values in future activities.
