Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
This session will examine how in-house law school clinics, through community-based collaboration and clinic design, can advance access to justice goals, both inside and outside the academy. The first portion of the presentation will examine how law schools can collaborate with practitioners to advance access to justice. It will describe a "court watch" project launched by the presenters and its impact in both promoting court reform and generating dialogue with students on the needs of low-income litigants. The session will train the audience in effective partnership and data collection models that further access to justice. The second portion will present and examine the role clinics play in addressing the unavailability of legal representation for both traditionally underserved and poor communities, as well as the middle class. The presentation will discuss engaging students in work with a clinic's client population as preparation for post-graduate work with similar clients.
