Graves writes on commercial law and arbitration, including his recent book, Learning Contracts (West 2014), an innovative first-year teaching text that abandons the traditional law school casebook method in favor of individual lessons containing learning objectives, explanations, examples, and problems in support of a flipped classroom approach. Graves also serves as Director of Digital Legal Education at Touro, leading initiatives to add online offerings of traditional law courses, as well as innovative new courses in “digital lawyering.” He has most recently turned his textbook on International Sales Law & Arbitration into an interactive online course for fully asynchronous delivery.
