Open Source Clickers?

Some good comments about clickers and educational feedback. It is not clear just what the person looking for the OS clicker is really looking for here.

Clients pressure bar to innovate

Great article with good links to articles about tech innovation, or the lack thereof, in legal practice. I think the implications for legal education are worth noting. As clients expect more use of technology in practice, firms will pressure law schools for more tech savvy graduates. And the 100+ year old style of teaching law in America ain’t going to cut it.

So where does innovation in legal education come from? Well, all modesty aside, CALI is probably one of the best sources for innovation in legal education in America.

Adoption has been slow at best, but we keep pushing. I think that eventually pressure from students and employers will force law schools to get more involved in using technology in education and exposing students to more of the technology they will see in practice.

It’s a clear attempt to be the browser of choice for the Web 2.0 user.
