Abstract
This article relates lessons that I learned about teaching law from my time as an art student in an atelier system that are supported by science-based pedagogical best practices. I review these pedological best practices, citing numerous studies, and provide detailed examples of how these best practices transformed my Mediation course and Professional Development course.
