Teachers' Manual to Green, Nesson & Murray, Problems, Cases and Materials on Evidence, 3rd Edition.
INTRODUCTION
This teacher's manual is designed to assist colleagues who use the materials collected, arranged, and discussed in the 3rd Edition of Problems, Cases and Materials on Evidence as a textbook in a basic 3 or 4 semester/hour basic course on Evidence. Colleagues' attention is drawn to the Green, Nesson & Murray Evidence Web Site (www.law.harvard.edu/publications/evidenceiii/index.html) which contains all of the contents of the 3rd Edition, this teachers' manual, the text of the Federal Rules of Evidence with Advisory Committee Notes, and an abundance of other evidence material.The numbers after the titles of cases, problems and other materials referred to in this teachers' manual are the page number in the 3rd Edition at which the material referred to is to be found.
The suggestions of the authors about how the selected materials in the casebook should be understood or taught are not intended to be definitive. The materials are rich enough to support a number of didactic points or perspectives for reflection. Colleagues should consider the authors' suggestions and points of departure for development of their own pedagogy from these materials. The authors welcome colleagues' feedback, ideas and suggestions on the materials in the 3rd edition and on the web site, and on this teacher's manual.
