In this episode of Chaptered Minds, we explore Learning to "Think Like a Lawyer" by Elizabeth Mertz, a groundbreaking ethnographic study of how law schools shape students’ thinking. Our AI hosts discuss Mertz’s insights into the teaching methods that foster analytical thinking in law students, emphasising how the Socratic method and case-based learning impact students’ understanding of justice, language, and argumentation. This episode delves into the psychological and cultural transformation that occurs as students learn to think, speak, and reason like lawyers. Tune in for a compelling conversation on legal education and its broader implications for society.
