Whether you’re a 1L or seasoned law school student, chances are your professor has assigned you a casebook or two. But do you know how to get the most out of the eBooks you have on Casebook Connect? Use these tips to help you get ahead and track your progress throughout your law school career.
Note: Some of these features may be unavailable on a Kindle-version eBook bought on a third-party website. eBooks from Aspenpublishing.com or physical books with an eBook code inside will automatically grant access to the eBook on Casebookconnect.com.
Highlighting, notes, annotations—it’s more than just a static text! Quickly create outlines while studying by simply highlighting text while reading. The eBook will automatically place the content you highlight within the correct chapter, based on the table of contents.
Boost your efficiency with the search function (a student favorite). Plus, the search function allows you to quickly find relevant cases or statutes, making the Socratic method a breeze. Use it to answer a professor's question on the spot by quickly pulling up the relevant case or statute within seconds. Say goodbye to flipping through pages and deciphering illegible notes! It will also save you a ton of time and stress during outlining season - go to the term and find the information you need without hunting through each page.
And with the case-briefing tool, you can easily organize your notes and outlines, making midterm and final exam studying a breeze. You can label key elements of each case while reading the eBook. Simply label each highlighter color for each aspect of a case—for example, facts, rules, holding, etc.—and the Case Briefing Tool will group highlighted text and notes for each category together in the order specified.
