every year in "How the Course [or Seminar] Will Work," a document in
the front of the paper coursepack or electronically available before
the first class.

The testimonials were provided directly by the authors. The link
is to a list of submitters.

Booklets from 1993 and 2000 [HC]
(I
created booklets like this

to put
on reserve for subsequent classes)
- Student
midterm answers. These are included in the Midterm
Memo from
Patent Law 2004 (annotated answers
follow page 6) [HC]
- Student packets of
readings from the Advanced
Patent Law Seminar
(Seminar
students
collect, edit and
annotate a packet of readings that the rest of the class then
reads and
about which they
answer written questions; the creator of the packet
then
gives a
talk to the class on the subject)
- Videos of Scientific Evidence Simulation Performances (by email)
- Teaching Materials

Work,

- Self-Evaluation: My
Statement
Concerning
Performance (submitted on my own motion to the Dean at Michigan) -
Submissions of
March
1995 and January 2001 [HC]
- Student Evaluations
- Michigan: Summary,
Michigan, Fall 2005 [HC]; (Unfortunately,
all the previous Michigan reports may be buried in a moving box that
has yet to be found)
- Stanford: Directory with 2007 and
2009 Evaluations
- There is no summary for 2007,
only for 2009.
- The
student evaluations for 2008 are
not
available on the Electronic Teaching site for
Stanford known as Axess. I think that was because the law school wanted
to have its own forms that year. I thought I had printouts but I
couldn't find them.)
