Byron Spring, Global Pro Bono Counsel & Director from the London office, and Kathryn Carey, Senior Technology Attorney from the New York office, will discuss some of the ways that AI is being used in global legal practice.

Transnational Technologically-enabled Learning: what would work for me?

Session offered by: Eraj Haidari, Fellow in Transnational Legal Education and Tamara Hervey, The City Law School; and Elisabetta Lando and Dominic Pates, LEaD

From 2023-2025, colleagues in The City Law School and LEaD collaborated to develop and offer an intense extra-curricular transnational learning experience, bringing together students from City St George’s, and Udayana University, Indonesia.

Students were paid to participate in the project, which involved synchronous and asynchronous online learning, on the theme of gender equality and law, across the two countries. We will present our project, show a short film that we made about it, and give you a chance to ask any questions you have.

Then it will be over to you. In pairs or small groups, we’ll ask you to think about what you might like to do in your field involving transnational technologically-enabled learning, and show you some simple LEaD learning design tools that might help.

You’ll leave the session with clearer ideas of what it takes to offer transnational technologically-enabled learning and what resources (including people) in City St George’s could help.
