Effective Practices in AI Literacy Education: A Legal Education Perspective

Abstract

This chapter explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy into legal education. It presents a module on an undergraduate law degree titled ‘Artificial Intelligence and Law’, highlighting the strategies employed to foster critical and contextual understanding of Generative AI (GenAI). The design, learning objectives, and assessments are discussed, emphasising the balance between theoretical knowledge and practical application. The chapter delves into student feedback, providing insight into their experiences and concludes with recommendations encouraging educators to integrate GenAI into their teaching.
