Popis: | 104 The study aims to explore the learning outcome of adopting an experiential approach towards law-related education in junior high schools. Results of this study are threefold. First, findings show that the experiential approach leads to a better understanding of legal knowledge. Second, most students demonstrate a positive attitude towards such an approach, believing that it raises learning motivation and comprehension of content material. In particular, the students found court trips and moot court to be the most interesting parts of the curriculum design. Third, the teachers listed several potential challenges that may arise, including limit of teaching time, insufficient administrative collaboration, lack of research support in schools, and inadequate professional skills to conduct such a learning approach. The study provided a number of suggestions for future research and pedagogical practice. It is hoped that the experiential approach will offer a new perspective to improving the teaching and learning of law-related education. |
