Online and Hybrid Learning Conference: Toward Defining Best Practices in Legal Education

Distance education and other modern learning tools are hard at work in legal education and have now been applied across a broad sampling of schools. Outcomes-oriented design, integrated formative and summative assessment, online simulations, asynchronous learning, and other hallmarks of distance education have demonstrated efficacy in law teaching for decades. But… a robust empirical research agenda is just beginning to develop. The interesting questions continue to center around how and where these modern learning tools and disciplines can be used to best advantage.

Bringing together leaders of legal education and law school innovation, “Online & Hybrid Learning Pedagogy: Toward Defining Best Practices in Legal Education” will nurture the emerging consensus on best practices in a new era of change and challenge in legal education:

For faculty looking to engage with tools now available to them to better their teaching and the students’ learning, there’s no better place to come and learn.

For deans and administrators looking to encourage stronger academic performance and better outcomes for a new generation of law students -- and trying to predict what’s ahead for legal education -- the tools and approaches discussed at this conference will help.

For the practice minded, experts on classroom and hybrid online applications will critically examine questions of balance, when live classrooms work best, and where teaching is better done in a hybrid or fully online learning environment.

We look forward to seeing you in Denver in late September!
