I have talked to several professors who would like to adopt the problem solving methodology for their university. However, many are worried about the resources required for such a course. For those of you considering adopting or already have adopted a problem solving course, how have you approached finding the resources (funding, teaching assistant time, etc) to do so?
In my travels lately I’ve heard some sentiments expressed that negotiation should be a required course in law schools. What is your opinion? Is negotiation a required skill for lawyers? Should all law students be exposed to some level of negotiation training? And if so, what would be appropriate … a short workshop or seminar or a full semester course?
