| Popis: | Technology law is rapidly growing in importance as subject of legal study and scholarship. Although this is beginning to be recognised by accreditation bodies and legal academics, a range of factors contribute to it not being taught as effectively as it should be, including a lack of expertise and the pace at which technology is advancing. Knowledge and understanding of technology law should be recognised as vital for law students and a necessary part of the contemporary law curriculum. Legal education must adapt to ensure students are prepared for the rapidly growing impact of new technologies on the legal system. This purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of the field and propose that it be taught through a core, stand-alone technology law subject within law degrees. |
