I'm one of the presenters for this upcoming continuing legal education (#CLE) presentation on upgrading US military discharges. Non-lawyers (including veterans and GI Rights counselors) are welcome to attend too.

Really any activity you do where all students pull what they've learned out of their memory without notes. If you might be interested, plesse let me know. #LegalEd #LawLibrarians #LegalWriting /2

Hi legal ed friends, working on a new chapter & looking for a few folks who might be willing to share a retrieval technique they use in their (doctrinal & any skills) classrooms: low-stakes quizzing, summarizing points from last unit, etc. #LegalEd #LegalWriting #LawLibrarians /1

TAKE NOTE, #lawtwitter:
I asked #ChatGPT for some fun caselaw. It quickly returned 3 cases from NY, OR, WI. Wow, cool! End of story? No.

In checking for all three cases in @fastcase, I realized
⚠️THEY ARE NOT REAL CASES⚠️

My webinar 'Minions and the Makers Movement: Making Complex Learning Environments More Accessible' is now available to watch on Youtube.

I cover some important points about #pedagogy, #engagement and #technology in the classroom, as well as demonstrating how fun this can be!

If you have any questions, let me know in the comments below. Thanks to University of Suffolk for giving me the chance to talk about something I am so passionate about.

Earlier this week, there were a few posts about the big turnout at the #AALS2023 session on the future of law school rankings.

What did folks who attended think were the key takeaways?

If competition is key to reducing US News' influence, does anyone foresee another news outlet taking advantage of the fact that all the public data US News has said it will rely upon in its next edition is already available? As we've demonstrated, wouldn't be hard:

@AmyLanders

Did anyone ask why ⁠— given that all the public data US News has said it will rely upon in its next edition is already available ⁠— anyone should wait for Bob Morse to decide how to weigh it?

Here's one ranking utilizing the data, along with an explanation of the weights given to different metrics. Others could take same data, give different weights, and also produce rankings more informed than US News.

At 10am, #AALS2023 will host a "Future of Law School Rankings" discussion.

Question: Given that all the public data US News has said it will rely upon in its next edition is already available, why should anyone wait for Bob Morse to decide how to weigh it?

Here's one alternative ranking of the Top 150 Law Schools, along with an explanation of our methodology (we rely upon 9 different criteria).

This was our panel today at #aals2023 for the Associate Dean section. It was an honor to learn from Dr. Nickey Woods, Deepika Sharma, and Chalak Richards. We discussed learning and motivation theory, and I presented strategies for teaching with intrinsic motivations that promote mastery and personal formation (not just extrinsic motivations of grades and competition). I always welcome opportunities to bring clinical moves to the doctrinal crowds.

Back at work this week!

I will be giving a #learning and #teaching seminar next week (11th January 2023) through the University of Suffolk on #creativity #engagement and #technology in the classroom, titled 'Minions and the Makers Movement - Making Complex Learning More Accessible'.

I will be explaining how I have used #3DPrinting and other creative arts to increase understanding of complex areas of the #law - in areas such as #IP, #Trusts and #Wills and #Probate. Come along to hear about the advantages this new tech brings - and how badly I draw things on a whiteboard!

Canva Docs — a new way to write visually - by Jeremy Caplan

This is interesting. If these docs can contain so many media, it poses the qn of what we can/should produce for students to communicate ideas. What medium works, when, how, why? And in my text-based discipline what does a multimedia document mean?

US News Law School rankings are flawed and exert a pernicious influence on #legaled, but we must navigate them. With 12 schools opting out so far (and more considering it), it's a fraught time for those of us with ballots. Here, I share my thoughts on the specific issues confronting those of us (1) who can vote in specialty rankings, (2) who object to US News rankings but (3) whose schools continue to participate.
