Research Instruction

Within law librarianship and legal education, there has been far too little scholarly engagement on the underlying pedagogy at the heart of legal research instruction. To correct this deficiency, law librarianship needs to open a dialogue and should consider adapting Bloom’s Taxonomy as a common schema for a collaborative effort. This paper was initially presented at the "Conference on Legal Information: Scholarship and Teaching," held at the University of Colorado Law School on June 21-22, 2009, as part of its Boulder Summer Conference Series. It follows the author's own recently published challenge to law librarianship and legal research instructors to create a Bloom’s taxonomy for legal research education. See Paul D. Callister, Thinking Like a Research Expert: Schemata for Teaching Complex Problem-Solving Skills, 28 LEGAL REFERENCE SERVICES Q. 31, 48-49 (2009).

Role And Function

Post reformation of the role and function of the House of Representatives of Republik Indonesaian (DPR RI) is returned to its corridor as a legislative institution that runs the legislative function (making laws/constitution), besides running budgeting fungction together with the president, and the oversight function of the implementation of the law and the budget in the administration of government carried out by the executive. Related to the lack of productivity of The House of Representatives (DPR) to carry out the legislative function, The performance evaluation of this legislation is not only seen in terms of the quantity of products made but its quality is also an important factor in assessing legislation products. The identification problems in this research are: What is the Position of the House of Representatives in the 1945 Constitution of the State of the Republic of Indonesia, and What is the Process of the Growth of the Post-Reformation House of Representatives.  In this research the library research method will be used or library research. Regarding this kind of research it is usually also called "Legal Research" or "Legal Research Instruction”. The position of The House of Representatives (DPR) after the amendment of the 1945 Constitution four times turned out to further strengthen its existence as the sole legislator. Although in the 1945 Constitution the amendment results also gave the President authority, but the authority he owned was not as big as The House of Representatives (DPR). And the process of the growth of the House of Representatives (DPR) Post-Reformation has strengthened the authority of the legislative instituion, in this case the House of Representatives of Republik Indonesian (DPR-RI) to maximize its role and function as a check and balances institution, after being strengthened, the House of Representatives (DPR) becomes tyrannical over the executive even over the state, because of its power and authority so great.

Oriented Approach

The paper (I) outlines the nature and extent of the dissatisfaction with legal research instruction and demonstrates that the problem predates computer-assisted legal research, (II) presents the history of the debate (focusing on a heated exchange between advocates of a "process-oriented" approach and proponents of the traditional, "bibliographic" methods), and (III) presents the requisite elements of a satisfactory pedagogical model, discussing various issues surrounding each of these elements.In part III, the paper proposes that a complete pedagogical model requires (A) an identifiable and fully understood objective in teaching legal research (which objective must distinguish between the kinds of research done by attorneys, scholars, and librarians), (B) a theory and understanding of the nature of legal source materials, (C) a theory of mathetics, or the nature of students and how they learn (with emphasis upon the provision of conceptual models for internalizing research techniques), and (D) a methodology consistent with the previous elements. Besides proposing the elements of the pedagogical model, this paper will explore the subtle issues surrounding each element (including examples of frameworks selected by the author), concluding that an appropriate pedagogical model has to be designed based upon the particular circumstances and needs of each law school.
