This book's unique structured approach facilitates learning and incentivizes students to prepare for class. One Federal Rule of Evidence introduces each section, followed by text explaining the background, rationale, and details of the rule. The text includes numerous diagrams as visual aids to learning and short transcripts that illustrate how the rules are applied in the courtroom. The authors emphasize the rules over cases, but include a few edited versions of the seminal cases that every lawyer should know. The heart of the "structured approach" is the Questions for Classroom Discussion , which follow the narrative explanation for each rule. These questions consist of simple hypothetical cases allowing for a step-by-step analysis of each section of the pertinent rule. Because students know what questions the professor will ask in class, they quickly learn that preparation pays off. A Structured Approach, Fifth Edition also allows students to download the questions directly for the book's page on WKLegaledu.com into their notes before class, freeing students to spend more time thinking and less time typing. New to the Fifth Professors and student will benefit
