    GenAI and the Future of Legal Education: A FutureFocus GenAI Program 2025 Initiative (opens in a new tab)⁠
    Deakin Learning Futures and Graduate Employability26 Nov 2024 - 28 Nov 2025
    People funded by this grant:
    While the indiscriminate use of GenAI can have serious implications for law students, lawyers and the legal industry, the question of how to educate the next generation of lawyers about the risks and opportunities of using this technology remains underexplored. To address this gap, in collaboration with the Law Institute of Victoria (LIV) and law student partners, this initiative investigates the impacts of GenAI on different types of legal work and students’ learning experience. The initiative will use focus group and other data to develop evidence-based recommendations for the LIV’s specialist lawyer training and Deakin’s Law School’s curriculum design.
