Abstract
An effective capstone experience provides closure through:
Supporting students to synthesise their learning in the program by building upon the knowledge, skills and capability development that has taken place over the entirety of the curriculum;
Providing enhanced opportunities for students to reflect on their personal and professional development over the course of their legal education experience and how that prepares them for their future professional and personal lives;
Assisting students to attain an understanding of what it means to be a graduate of the discipline and begin to develop a professional identity.
