Nearly all law teachers give and score examinations, but few have had any training in examination construction. Most of us learn by mentoring, trial, and error. This program is designed to introduce law teachers to sound principles of exam-building and exam-scoring. Most of the participants are professionals in the field, but their presentations will avoid mathematical complexity and should be easily understandable to all. If you have wondered whether or not your exams are doing the job well, you'll find this program enjoyable and enlightening.
