Spots are filling up fast, but you can still sign up for Friday's webinar on the Legal Education Commons:
CALI Webinar: Legal Education Commons - Friday, Feb 27, 3:00-3:30pm EDT (2:00 CST)
Gene Koo, CALI/Berkman Fellow, will be introducting the Commons and answering your questions.
We have opened up registration for the 2009 Conference for Law School Computing.
Every couple of weeks, CALI will host a free online presentation on a subject related to technology and innovation in legal education aimed at law school faculty and staff!
We will focus on "how-to" introductory topics with the hope that you will learn something you can immediately apply. Attendee interaction during and after the presentation are encouraged.
This and next week's topic is an introduction to the Legal Education Commons.
This year, the theme for CALI's Conference for Law School Computing is... "Tools for Change."
Information on registeration, proposal submission, sponsorship opportunities, and other general conference information is (or will be) available at the conference homepage.
Sue Altmeyer, writing for the Law Librian Blog, here, has posted a nice blog about the benefits and opportunities of becoming a CALI author and writing legal research lessons.
Here's a quick video tutorial detailing how professors and librarians can upload their materials to the Legal Education Commons.
Now that the Legal Education Commons is up and running, we are asking law faculty and librarians to share their materials with the commons by uploading files they think might help others teach.
If you are unsure what to upload, start small -- a syllabus, for example.
This is where you can get all the latest info on what's going with CALI.
Classcaster (www.classcaster.org) is back up. Elmer will have an interesting tale to tell about Turkish hackers, injection attacks and the Blackberry as a terminal client. If any blog authors posted anything in the last 24 hours, it is likely that the post was lost and you should re-create the post.
I (John Mayer) gave a talk at AALS in San Diego during the "Redefining Legal Education" session. I have posted the talk as a screencast here. I was a little rushed for time and so covered a lot of ground in just 15 minutes, but I did receive a lot of positive feedback from the attendees.
