This study looks at how legal faculty view online legal education. The report helps its readers to answer questions such as: what percentage of law faculty currently teach online? How much do they support online and other forms of distance legal education? How much online legal education survived the great pandemic? What is the course of its likely future use? How likely is your law school to expand its online legal efforts? Survey participants comment on which uses of distance legal education are most beneficial, and which the most problematic.
Just a few of this 81-page report’s many findings are that:
- Nearly 78% of faculty at large law schools with more than 800 students have ever taught a distance education law course.
- 21.64% of faculty support expanding the use of online legal education, led by younger faculty.
- Politically conservative faculty were the most critical, with 64.29% rating online legal education as "worse" or "much worse," than traditional legal education.
Data and commentary in the report is based on a survey of 134 law school faculty from more than 80 law schools in the USA and Canada.
