 Technology plays a key role in supporting teachers and students shaping learning for the future. The way in which solicitors train and qualify has changed through new courses featuring the latest technology. We visited the University of Law in London to see how they have embraced tech producing a positive learning experience benefitting students, the university and employers. Good morning and a very warm welcome to today's session which is about the future academic model. At the University of Law, a positive teaching experience is top priority. Be it in the classroom or far away, the student is always at the centre. The way that students receive their feedbacks affect their studies. This is the university's future academic model at work and evolving in the present. Started in 2019 it sees learning characterised by a hybrid model with five pillars teaching excellence, data, design, assessment and of course student experience. The future academic model is built upon those five pillars of success and what we are doing is we are making sure that the technology is at the centre of it but it's actually student focused and allows the students to customise their access but they are customising their engagement with others at the same time. The University of Law was already running pilot studies for different technologies when the pandemic hit. It simply accelerated new ways of working into the university's DNA. I think what made it unique was that the tutors always engaged us in lecture. It didn't matter that we are at home but we still felt part of the lecture. Part of the future academic model is the Digital Academy with its intensive one-to-one support for students and staff. It enables them to understand their digital capabilities and facilitates deeper learning. I would say that the use of technology has made me much more employable especially in the way that the Digital Academy has enabled us to find out what our weaknesses are and build on those weaknesses and come out with evidence of how we can use technology in those firms. The way solicitors train and qualify in England and Wales is changing dramatically so the University of Law is rolling out a range of new courses to not just prepare students for their exams but as always to make sure they are the day one ready trainees firms really want. The University's Vice Chancellor explains that the digital flexible curriculum allows students to determine the pace and nature of their courses to ensure they optimise their success as students and graduates. So the model is all about creating a digital asset and making sure that at the outset the content, the delivery is flexible across all modes to allow us to move fast, to adapt, to personalise and to ensure that no student is left behind in their aspiration. Their life circumstances shouldn't determine their educational outcomes. Those values of inclusion and diversity underpin the future academic model. Values shared by the prestigious law firms with which the University partners. For us, choosing a provider that really understands inclusion and embeds it at the very heart of course design in terms of the learning, the support, the mentoring for our student population is absolutely critical because it's at the very heart of our strategy here at Clifford Chance. So with constantly evolving technology, employers, students and staff can work together to make the future of law a reality.
