- Abstract
- Over the years, there has been a constant evolution of the law practice, and the tremendous changes come from various technological innovations. The legal fraternity has witnessed the emergence and maturation of the internet. Learning for students has been made easier with the spread of smartphones, tablets, netbooks, and laptops, in what has been referred to as mobile computing. The modern lawyer is different form the traditional one due to their capability to implement paperless offices and frequent digital communication like Web conferencing, SMS, and email. The research design adopted in this study involves a systematic literature review conducted over the last decade. Among the significant inclusion criteria is that the article should deal with learning methods that are oriented to technology. Papers or articles that had no law education resource or technological element were excluded. From this study , it became clear that every lawyer understands that being technology savvy attracts a myriad of benefits, including efficiency in time usage, superior work output, and brings on board new clients. Similarly, technology promises them improved job projections for law graduates and an easier shift into real work on the ground. This study aims to determine how technology has been integrated into law teaching, its advantages, and its role in equipping the modern lawyer to take up the practice and all it entails. Tables: 1.
