A description of a new program for legal education is described which combines classroom simulations of lawyering tasks and skills with a series of externships with practitioners. Traditional classes for learning the substantive knowledge of the law are conducted in conjunction with the experiential aspects. (Author/MLW)

Working from a model of the experiential learning process, some pragmatic concerns for program design are presented. An extensive model for conducting internships is described, emphasizing ways in which learning from the internship experience can be facilitated. (Author/MLW)

When traditional classes are followed by field experiences, faculty must recognize the unique learning/growth patterns of each student. A model for student learning stages that enables faculty members to adopt the appropriate roles and behaviors to support these students' learning is presented. (Author/MLW)
