Abstract

Trends in the teaching of legal disciplines in the military higher education institutions (MHEI) (military educational units of the higher education institutions (MEUHEI)), require the use of methods that correspond to the modern requirements used in leading educational institutions. One of these teaching methods, so-called "case study", founded at the Harvard University Business School (USA) back in 1924. And although historically this method has existed for almost a hundred years, it is not actively using not in all higher educational institutions of Ukraine in teaching legal disciplines. This method is different from others, the possibility of assimilation by the student of practical skills that are especially important for the future lawyer, regardless of the immediate future field of activity (judge, lawyer, prosecutor, etc.). This issue is especially relevant in the context of distance learning process, since the ability to assimilate information by students and receive the appropriate necessary competencies depends on the organization of training using modern teaching methods in online learning. The effectiveness of teaching legal discipline directly depends on the systematic development of classical situations that are repeated in practice. Therefore, "cases" should be selected taking into account the following criteria: relevance, repeatability in practice, difficulties, efficiency, the possibility of combining with other teaching methods, etc. A feature of the application of the case method in legal sciences is that the legislation of Ukraine is constantly changing, and the rules of law have not been changed. An increase in cognitive activity, the formation of a stable positive motivation of students is possible when using "case-methods" of teaching. Regarding competencies, the student using of this teaching method, will acquire communication skills, leadership, the ability to analyze information, and decision-making in a stressful situation.
