CasebookPlus™

This title is available in our CasebookPlus format. CasebookPlus provides support beyond your classroom lectures and materials by offering additional digital resources to you and your students. Anchored by faculty-authored formative self-assessments keyed to our most popular casebooks, CasebookPlus allows students to test their understanding of core concepts as they are learning them in class – on their own, outside of the classroom, with no extra work on your part. CasebookPlus combines three important elements:

• A new print or digital casebook
• Access to a downloadable eBook with the ability to highlight and add notes
• 12-month access to a digital Learning Library complete with:

Multiple-choice self-assessment questions, including:

• Chapter questions keyed to the casebook
• Black Letter Law questions (available in select subjects)
• Subject area review questions for end of semester use

Essay and short answer questions with sample answers and expert commentary, in 1L and select upper-level subjects

Leading digital study aids, an outline starter, and audio lectures in select subjects

Students can still utilize CasebookPlus digital resources if they’ve purchased a used book or are renting their text by purchasing the Learning Library at westacademic.com.

With CasebookPlus, you can customize your students’ learning experience and monitor their performance. The quiz editor allows you to create your own custom quiz set, suppress specific quiz questions or quiz sets, and time-release quiz questions. Additionally, the flexible, customized reporting capability helps you evaluate your students’ understanding of the material and can also help your school demonstrate compliance with the new ABA Assessment and Learning Outcomes standards.

Teacher's Manual

The need for training in the fundamentals of higher education law has never been greater. Now in its second edition, this cutting-edge casebook provides materials for use in law school and other programs teaching those fundamentals.

The new edition continues to feature substantial treatment of all the traditional and core topics covered in the first edition, including tenure, the evolution of higher education law in America, public/private distinctions, affirmative action, etc.

Importantly, the substantially revised new edition provides intensive treatment of many new topics, including the Penn State crisis, affirmative action in the wake of Fisher v. Texas and the many new federal regulatory mandates reshaping American higher education (including “gainful employment”, Title IX sexual assault guidance, and “direct threat” analysis under Title II, inter alia).
