(EST) on June 4, 2021 via email to Amy Schmisseur (schmisseural@state.gov) and Najar Starr (StarrND@state.gov) INL seeks to implement a focused exchange program to improve the teaching methodology employed by Kosovar university law school faculty to include
more proactive engagement of law students that will foster students' critical thinking and legal writing skills, analysis of teaching materials, courts cases, statutes, and legal documents.
This grant seeks to build the capacity of faculty members in both public and private Kosovar law universities by:
· Improving the capacity of law professors in Kosovo in interactive teaching methods designed to teach critical thinking skills; · Delivering seminars, trainings, workshops, and/or lectures; · Developing academic or training curricula and materials; · Conducting needs assessments or evaluations for a program or institution; · Engaging in strategic or institutional planning; · Gaining global perspectives from experienced U. S. academics and professionals; and · Strengthening Kosovo citizens’ access to justice services.
INL seeks creative proposals to meet these needs.
One possible approach to achieve these aims would be to conduct a bilateral faculty exchange program to:
Bring U.S.-based law professors to Pristina to mentor law faulty in Kosovo, and Facilitate one-semester faculty exchange visits to a U. S. law school for a cohort of faculty members to observe, learn and advance teaching methods that are employed there.
