Abstract: |
Background: With the funding assistance
from the Run Run Shaw Research and Teaching Endowment Fund, the HKU PCLL has
developed its own web base (http://www3.hku.hk/pcll for full-time registered
students; http://www3.hku.hk/pcllpt for part-time ones) for teaching and
learning since September 2002. However, it is still in its basic stage: it
has been used mainly for disseminating information, email exchanges and
handing in and returning course works. While software like Web-CT has been
used in the context of learning core legal knowledge, there are clear
limitations on their effectiveness in a professional course like the HKU PCLL
with its direction and emphasis gearing more towards transactional and
skills-based learning objectives, which require students to learn how to do
things, rather than what is to be done. The objective is for the HKU PCLL to
provide better platforms for students’ learning and facilitate in producing
more effective learning outcomes by developing and utilizing its web base.
Survey of available options: A preliminary review of the existing literature
shows that remarkable developments in e-learning for professional legal
education have been taking place in various jurisdictions. (i) UK – Generally
the UK Centre for Legal Education (UKCLE: www.ukcle.ac.uk) is actively
involved in the development of computer-based learning in law, with papers,
conferences and discussion being actively initiated: for examples, a
conference on ‘Legal issues of online learning environments held at the
University of Warwick from 1 – 2 June 2005 and another Legal Practice Course
Conference titled ‘Opportunities for change’, held at Nottingham Law School
in the same month. Another conference on ‘Enhancing learning in law through
web-based technology’ will be held at |
