Conference sessions started on Thursday with a welcome by Laurel Oates and Mimi Samuel of Seattle University.  The first session, Models for Teaching Legal Writing, introduced various ways to design LRW courses as to both staffing and basic course structure.  After participants shared morning tea and ideas about how their institutions help students to develop their writing skills, the second session explored the limits of transplanting US models to other countries.  Here I am during my session on the product and process approaches to teaching writing, working with small groups during an exercise.
