Abstract
ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to investigate the utility of a small-scale Street Law project as a capstone service-learning course in one Irish university. It begins with a discussion of Street Law as an aspect of clinical legal education in Ireland and considers the aims and objectives of Street Law pedagogy. It then describes the development of a Street Law project at the School of Law, University of Limerick (UL) and explains how the approach taken in this project differs from that in other institutions. The paper will then outline a study undertaken with UL Street Law students. The results of the study are presented and critically assessed to consider the contribution and sustainability of the project in its current form.

Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article.
