Abstract

Law and Legal Studies Education Commerce, Management, Tourism and Services
The criterion-referenced assessment of clinical legal education is challenging due to the community raising diverse legal problems and law students demonstrating a wide range of skills. Clinical legal education may be harnessed by a whole-of-curriculum approach to assessing reflective practice using a criterion-referenced assessment rubric. The incremental reflective practice rubric is grounded in a conceptualisation of reflective practice and has been designed for two incremental clinical legal education experiences - an early immersion in a foundation course and a subsequent experience in an elective course. The rubric is applicable to reflection-for-practice, reflection-in-action and reflection-on-action, and is appropriate for written and oral assessment tasks
