OER for LAW 41, LAW 42?

[Lisa Storm]

Hi Everyone!

I have a faculty member searching for OER for two classes; LAW 41, and LAW 42.  The descriptions are below. Thanks for any recommendations!

LAW 41 Street Law: 

Course Description

Designed to provide students with practical information about areas of the law that affect the daily lives of all U.S. residents. Students participate in activities designed to develop analytic and advocacy skills. Students are introduced to fundamental civil, criminal, and constitutional law principles. Students review basic legal reasoning, introductory research methods, and principles of legal ethics and sources of rules governing attorney conduct. This course is recommended for students interested in pursuing a legal career, but any student who wants a better understanding of the law and how it impacts their lives will benefit from this course.

LAW 42: Law and Public Service

Course Description

This course provides service learning in community, civic or legal settings. The focus is on specific problems in the community. Students put discipline-specific knowledge into practice through hands-on work with nonprofit organizations. The service learning experience challenges students to broaden their understanding of social justice issues by providing them with a larger social context in which to understand the systematic problems that members of society face. Students will develop skills and knowledge in providing service to others. Students will gain a better understanding of their responsibility to civic-engagement in a democratic society. This course requires 3 hours per week of volunteer service with local community service organizations, or for students able to obtain paid legal internships, 3 work hours per week can be substituted.
