ASIL Teaching International Law Interest Group
ASIL Interest Groups are organized by ASIL members for focused activity
in particular fields of international law. Membership in ASIL is
required for membership in ASIL Interest Groups.
The Teaching International Law Interest Group provides a forum
for those involved in or interested in teaching international law
to discuss approaches, methods, and new techniques taking place
both in the United States and abroad. The Group operates under the
premise that effective teaching leads to increased public awareness
and a greater understanding of international law. Although innovative
new practices are often highlighted, standard approaches are also
examined in order to keep them fresh and effective. The Group has
recently addressed topic areas such as curriculum and pedagogies
in both doctrinal and non-doctrinal courses, requiring international
law courses, infusion curriculum, and international law certificate
programs within the JD program. The Group addresses these topics
through discussions and workshops, as well as through co-sponsorship
of international conferences.
