Description: As AI tools become more common, paralegal students must learn not just how to use these technologies—but when and why. This session will offer strategies for integrating responsible AI use into paralegal education, with a strong focus on the appropriate use of AI in academia and the legal field. Emphasis will be placed on fostering critical thinking surrounding AI use. We will discuss the creation and implementation of in-class exercises and assignments that incorporate AI technology. This session will include attendee participation through discussion and workshopping sample assignments.
