DESCRIPTION:La Faculté de droit de McGill a l’honneur d’accueillir le profe
 sseur Todd Rakoff (Harvard) pour une présentation sur l’atelier de résolut
 ion de problème de Harvard (Problem Solving Workshop)\, un cours pratique 
 que tous les étudiants en droit de première année suivent à cette universi
 té. Nos collègues de toutes les facultés de droit du Québec sont ainsi cha
 leureusement conviés à cette conférence très intéressante sur la pédagogie
  du droit à Harvard.\n\nCette activité est accréditée pour 1\,5 heure de f
 ormation continue obligatoire pour juristes.\n\nRésumé\n\n[En anglais seul
 ement] The Problem Solving Workshop is a three-week intensive program that
  all first-year Harvard Law School students are required to take.\n\nAs is
  set out in the course description\, the Harvard workshop allows students 
 to “confront client problems—framed from the clients’ and attorneys’ point
 s of view and designed expressly for the Workshop—in the way practicing la
 wyers do\, from the very beginning\, before the facts are all known\, befo
 re the client’s goals are clarified\, before the full range of options is 
 explored\, and before a course of conduct is chosen.\n\nRather than teach 
 law in the abstract\, the course poses questions like these: What sort of 
 problems do lawyers solve? How do they solve them? What intellectual const
 ructs do they bring to bear? What practical judgments? And\, as students f
 ind the answers to those questions\, they learn to combine their knowledge
  of the law with practical judgment to help clients attain their goals wit
 hin the bounds of the law.”\n\nProfessor Rakoff will share his experiences
  and insights in running this unique course that bridges the gap between a
 cademic study and practical lawyering.\n\nBiographie\n\n[En anglais seulem

 nd administrative law at the Harvard Law School (HLS)\, where he has been
