It was so nice to co-present with Prof. Jon Sheffield today at the Central States Legal Writing Conference hosted by Northwestern Pritzker School of Law. I'm fortunate to have him as my friend & colleague! @loyolachicago.bsky.social @northwesternlaw.bsky.social #legalwriting

Lawyers/law students: Would love your insights!
• What kinds of feedback (quizzes, writing, exams, graded or not) actually helped you learn/improve?
• Was any feedback confusing or unclear?
• How did it make you feel?
• Any advice for law profs on giving feedback that supports learning/motivation?

Even after several yrs of teaching under my belt, some moments still feel new in the best way. This AY marked my 1st time teaching 1Ls @loyolachicago.bsky.social & my first time guiding them through their oral arguments. Special thx to our guest judges! Our #1L oralists did an amazing job!

TBH, sometimes I completely doubt myself (hello, imposter syndrome) after countless hrs of class prep. Then a student tells me a 7th Cir. judge was impressed with her memo & she got the job. By golly, those long hrs are worth it. Cheers to law educators. I’m Big Bird. Every day.
