And how does the rushed time frame we give students to write notes/comments contribute to this phenomenon?

In updating my research on the rhetoric of "counterfeiting," I'm seeing a lot of what I saw while working on our design patent myths piece: A lot of attorneys and law students citing empirical "studies" or reports without (apparently) checking or even questioning details/validity of those studies.

What role do we have, in law schools, to teach and encourage students to question and critically evaluate these kinds of sources?

or other if you were designing a legal research class for first year law students what would you include or exclude? What would be your ideal way of teaching a first year legal research class? @lawlibrarians

Inspired by a conversation I had yesterday:

Law professors, if a casebook has all male authors, how many authors does it take before that fact gives you pause?

Like, at what point does a casebook become the equivalent of a manel?
