The future of legal education

Posted by Pablo Molina at 5:12 PM - Categories: Technology resources

A key component of the new strategic plan for technology at the Law Center is how legal education will be transformed in the next two decades, partly because of technology developments. Some of our faculty members envision walking into a classroom where they can request aloud that the system show the Godfather film clip in which Don Vito Corleone makes an offer you cannot refuse. Others would like to type their names or those of their colleagues and have their entire intellectual production one-click away. Some students dream about laptop computers without hard disks that can operate for many hours on their batteries. Others believe that sophisticated mobile phones with voice-recognition will make computers obsolete. Administrators envision teaching sessions in which students and faculty members seat in different continents. How do you see the future of legal education?
