Those that predict the future of technology in education seem to be in agreement
on one point at least. What we have seen so far is merely the beginning! Tremendous
changes are in store for education and the theme of this year's conference attempts
to bring focus to the things we, as legal educators, should be doing today to
prepare for future challenges. In this talk, I will use a sub-genre of science
fiction writing called "alternate futures" to predict where education
might be heading and what elements exist today that support these potential
futures.

The STEP (South Texas Electronic Publishing) Initiative is working on a pilot
project to prepare the Texas Constitution in an SGML format that will allow
the user to view the constitution at any particular date (e.g., Feb. 14, 1897)
or to take a particular provision and trace its amendment history. A method
(possibly XLL) will also be used to allow the creation of inward links so that
relevant documents can be linked to particular provisions or scholarly annotations
added.
The goal is to provide the tools and protocols so that others make extend the project to other federal-component constitutions throughout the U.S. and around the world.

The presenters will focus on using the web to create html pathfinders in an advanced electronic research course as well as discussing the pedagogic concerns involved in planning and implementing a course that integrates research formats via lectures and assignments that focus on and expand the MacCrate research strategy approach. The elements of Professor Levor's course, which was developed collaboratively by the reference team at theUniversity of San Diego, are demonstrable through the course web page at <www.acusd.edu/alr/>. The pedagogy is based on an 1995 article by Lucia Ann Silecchia, "Designing and Teaching Advanced Legal Research and Writing Courses," 33 Duq. L. Rev. 203; on the findings of the MacCrate Commission; and most of all, on their observations of student research behaviors and needs. The exercises are distillations of the research journal concept and are designed to make students conscious of and adept at the skills and processes of research design while introducing them to the breadth and depth of resources and media and the ways in which these tools and formats interact.

INTERACTIVE COMPUTER-DRIVEN WHITE BOARDS IN LAW SHOOL

Smart lecterns are obsolete. You can stand in front of the class, and write on a board while controlling multimedia presentations by simply touching the board itself. You can hand write over anything being displayed on the board, and save, publish or print out the notes at the end of each class. The law professor can use the most sophisticated technology in the same way that teachers have used black boards for decades. Power and simplicity at the touch of a finger.
I have been using two interactive white board systems for the last few weeks
and will present the results of my testing at the 1998 CALI conference. Both
systems show great promise for classroom use. The Smartboard uses a white board
made of touch-sensitive material that
becomes a 60 or 72-inch interactive computer monitor. The teacher can completely
control the computer desktop from the board itself, as well as handwrite on
the board, even directly over projected computer material, using a virtual writing
system. The Tegrity system uses a digital video camera to create a limited set
of virtual touch-buttons that control a Windows desktop, and can be activated
from the white board as well. It also captures notes written with normal dry
ink markers, even if they are made over projected material. At the end of the
session, class notes can be saved and be distributed as needed. The classroom
technology of the future works like the classroom equipment of the past.

Traditional teaching methods leave many students with fragmented and confused conceptualizations of specific areas of law and a poor understanding of the nature and structure of legal reasoning. Current uses of computer technology may exacerbate these problems. This session will explore the use of expert system technology that enables students rapidly to build models of the law and legal reasoning in specific legal domains, thereby facilitating understanding of the particular area of law and also converting abstract and often sterile debates on the nature of law and legal reasoning into concrete, relevant, practical, testable and perhaps even resolvable propositions.

Professor of Law

Professor Wiseman will introduce The WWWeBBB System, a sophisticated World-Wide-Web-based
bulletin board system which is used at Georgia State to deliver new job listings
to students, among other uses. Students may retrieve job listings from web pages,
or may have new notices emailed to them. Maintenance of the site is almost entirely
web-based, and much of it is automated. Professor Wiseman will describe the
online job-listing service from three perspectives, the student-user, the website
administrator (Career Services Office staff), and the system administrator,
devoting the bulk of his time to the web-based site administration. The WWWeBBB
System, which is written in perl, and which should run on any UNIX system (it
runs on Linux at GSU) will be available for download by the time of the conference.
