As part of its commitment to future-ready legal education, SPSPS Faculty of Law convenes its faculty members on May 30 for a comprehensive workshop centered on the practical application of artificial intelligence (AI) in legal education and the enhancement of program syllabi.
Throughout the training, faculty members explore practical approaches to incorporating AI-assisted tools into legal instruction, case analysis, research methodologies, and assessment design. The sessions also provide an opportunity to review and enhance program syllabi to ensure alignment with current legal developments, emerging technologies, and the evolving competencies required of future members of the legal profession.
In her opening remarks, Dean of the Faculty of Law, Atty. Felma Freda Lopez underscores the importance of embracing technological advancements to strengthen teaching and learning outcomes.
“Its purpose is simple yet profound: to equip our law professors with the necessary knowledge and practical skills to harness AI as a force for deeper learning, sharper analysis, and more rigorous legal research,” Atty. Lopez said.
A key development highlighted in the workshop is the approval of the Anti-Corruption elective by the Legal Education Board, to be integrated into the Faculty of Law curriculum this academic year, alongside a newly structured Monday–Friday weekday class schedule.
In addition, the event also serves as a moment of recognition and gratitude for Atty. Leo S. Giron, who retires after 16 years of dedicated service to the institution. The Faculty of Law pays tribute to his exemplary commitment to legal education since joining SPSPS in 2010.
