Abstrakt: This essay examines how law school education can be modernized through the use o f technology. First, the essay acknowledges that the current use of technology in most law school classes lacks appeal to students today. It briefly explores the use of PowerPoints, podcasts, and clickers and suggests that students have grown bored with this technological trio because of overuse and familiarity. Second, the essay proposes that today's students will be better served in class if professors would use the technology that students more typically use. It advocates for the addition of pop culture videos, music playlists, and Facebook groups to law school classes. Finally, the essay proposes a methodology for incorporating the technological trifecta into law school classes and the advantages of doing so. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
