RESOURCES FOR REMOTE LEARNING
In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic and the challenges to teaching and learning, we are compiling a repository of resources on teaching and learning remotely. This is being created with the input of members. There are some excellent resources here to get you thinking. We encourage you to share resources you may have by getting in touch with a Co-convenor or the Project Officer to include them!
The resources are located under the Resources tab -> select reading sub heading. Click HERE!
Good Practice Guides
A key goal of the Law AD Network has been the production and distribution of a series of Good Practices Guides (GPG's) designed to highlight good practices in legal education, particularly as they relate to the Law Threshold Learning Outcomes (TLO's).
On July 2015 the Council of Australian Law Deans (CALD) adopted a revised GPG on teaching Statutory Interpretation. The GPG produced by LEAD currently remains on the LEAD GPG resource webpage and remains of relevance when thinking about how teaching statutory interpretation can be aligned with the TLO's.
