Critical thinking in legal education: Our journey

Abstract

In early 2012, a group of colleagues in the University of Adelaide Law School formed a working group on critical thinking. The initial intention of the group was to discuss Margaret Thornton's recent book, Privatising the Public University: The Case of Law and to consider its applicability to our school. To facilitate this discussion, we held several 'reading groups' and the Law School hosted Thornton for a presentation and interactive workshop.
