Riddell, Jessica – Arts and Humanities in Higher Education: An International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice, 2018
Research on authentic learning has been predominantly focussed on skills-based training: there is a paucity of research on models of authentic learning available for adaptation in the humanities undergraduate classroom. In this article, I will seek to address this gap by proposing that legal trials are ideal models for designing authentic learning…
