Law Schools Measure Critical Thinking
Educational excellence starts with enrolling the best possible new group of students and educating them to become the best possible JD, LLM, LSM, joint MS and SJD graduates, professionals and job candidates.
Training for critical thinking has always been a central concern of legal educators. Law schools are adopting Insight Assessment critical thinking measurement tools, such as the Legal Studies Reasoning Profile (LSRP) , Parts 1 & 2 because:
- faculty can quickly and easily document the critical thinking of prospective or current students. The data gathered with these tools are valuable for admissions purposes, educational research, accreditation, learning outcomes assessment and program evaluation. Insight Assessment testing tools are cost-effective and can be normed to law schools and programs comparable to your own.
- admissions programs can use results to identify applicants who have the strongest critical thinking skills and the desire to apply those skills. These candidates have outstanding potential to learn and to achieve to the maximum their talent permits.
