Teaching Undergraduate Law Students in the 21st Century ? Pedagogy in a Technological Era

Teaching to law students in the 21st Century can be a daunting task for any law professor. Students come from different backgrounds, could be the first member of their family to go to university and bring with them varied experiences and exposure with modern technology, social media and the internet. Within this background, modern teaching pedagogy suggests that students need to be actively involved with their learning and that the learning and teaching environment needs to be student centred. This paper focusses on using the pedagogy of storytelling to build a bridge between teaching by law professors and learning for the modern law student in a technological era.
