Since 1975, the bench and bar of the vast majority of jurisdictions in the United States have implemented programs of mandatory continuing legal education (MCLE) for their attorneys. Typically, the justification for these programs has been rooted in a desire to keep lawyers abreast of all the latest developments in the law and to provide them with…

Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly influenced educational technologies, reshaping the teaching and learning landscape. However, the notion of fully automating the teaching process remains contentious. This paper explores the concept of hybrid intelligence (HI), which emphasizes the synergistic collaboration…

One way to reduce the cognitive load students feel during instruction is to change the way content is delivered. This can be achieved by optimising the instructional sequence and providing sufficient instructional support during problem-solving. However, the literature is unclear regarding whether an inductive or a deductive instructional sequence…

In modern higher education, there was a change in the educational paradigm, when the emphasis shifted to the formation of competencies. The goal of the competence approach is to improve the quality of education, which is impossible without the use of educational technologies that guarantee a steady effective result. The priority of teaching…

The rapid advancement of Generative Artificial Intelligence Technology has increasingly drawn attention to its potential applications in the educational sector. This study aims to investigate the effects of Situational Interactive Teaching, facilitated by generative artificial intelligence, on students' learning outcomes and flow experiences. A…

Law schools have long been resistant to change. The pedagogical approach in law schools, the Socratic method, has been the overarching format to teach law since the 1800's. The legal community in the 21st Century continues to resist educational diversity by insisting that law school be taught in one fashion. Innovators in law saw that alternative…

Design/methodology/approach: Law students (n = 417) filled in an anonymous questionnaire on their…

In law and business schools, culturally relevant/responsive curricula can aid students' academic success. In this paper, we examine the use of culturally responsive narratives to illustrate principles and practices of dispute resolution (mediation and arbitration) in the Middle East as distinct or similar to those prescribed under Common Law.…

Over the course of 3 years, the Political Science and Biology Programs at a regional HBCU have built a curricular learning community centered on a mock trial competition, where a microbiology course was paired with an introductory legal studies course. Over the course of a semester, students enrolled in both courses studied a real appellate case…

Higher Education institutions must respond to the major challenges posed by the technological transformations of recent years. For this, one of the key aspects is that the teachers working in them are trained to incorporate these technologies in teaching-learning processes, which requires them to be digitally competent. To analyse how gender…

Everyday, technology in our life changes quickly. Every development made by humans in the field of technology affects the way of our life, and education is not an exception. We now have a variety of learning methods in addition to conventional, in-person instruction. This research was carried out in the "Computer for Low" (ITEC190) and…

The "purpose" of this study was to find out how students and teachers perceive the automation of the specialists' professional training process and the impact factors of perceiving the learning activity of such kind by students and faculty. The experimental model of automated learning was based on an express course in the academic…

This study deals with solving the current problem of pedagogy of high school -- consolidation of theoretical and practical approaches to ensure the quality of professional training of law students. According to the author, the introduction of simulation modelling technologies in training courses allows enhancing interdisciplinarity in teaching,…

This study examines student perceptions about (i) whether writing in undergraduate disciplines contributes to the development of student pre-professional identity (PPI) and (ii) how writing in such disciplines affects PPI relative to other classroom activities. The study was conducted at St. John's University in New York, which has a very diverse…

Changing learning objectives was the beginning of rethinking the pedagogical frame of my courses within a traditional law study program. The objectives were changed in order to aim for students becoming better at reflecting on the curriculum. I chose to work within a workshop frame incorporating some of the Aalborg PBL principles. The two courses…
