Abstract

With the introduction and proliferation of generative tools being made generally available to the public, often for free, both teachers and students need to more consciously consider how to incorporate such tools into their teaching and learning in a manner that better prepares students for entering the future workforce, and at the same time does not impede intended learning outcomes and takes into account ethical considerations relating to their fellow students and GenAI’s impact on the broader society. The introduction of GenAI into LITE Lab at the Faculty of Law will be a case study.
