School Law And The Public Schools (7th edition) includes 40
scenario-based Application Exercises.
Purpose:
The exercises are designed to advance your students
professional development by taking them into educational
settings through authentic scenarios that provide them with
significant legal challenges and problems that principals and
superintendents most likely will encounter during their

Structure:

1. Title of the exercise
2. A one or two paragraph overview that establishes the context for the
exercise
3. A scenario that presents a legal challenge or problem
4. A series of higher-order thinking constructed-response questions that
prompt students to reflect on how they would deal with the challenge or problem
presented
5. A model response for each question (You have the option of inserting
these responses into the feedback mechanism in your LMS.)
Assigning the Exercises:
The exercises can be assigned in three or more ways, such as:
1. Assigning them for homework after a chapter has been covered in
