    This Essay, by James E. Daily, lecturer at Washington University School of Law, identifies current declines in the demand for legal education and the greater job market offers a possible solution—re-introducing the LL.B degree. Daily looks at the historical increases in demand that led to the acceptance of the J.D. as the standard law degree required for practice. Daily proposes law schools should re-organize the current J.D. program to become a research or theory-focused advanced degree, and re-introduce the LL.B undergraduate LL.B degree that integrates the use and creation of new technologies in legal practice

    Teaching Digital Humanities: How Technology Can Empower Humanities Students And Educators

    Get PDF
    In Fall of 2017, Religion in the Digital Age debuted as an elective for Religious Studies students interested in Digital Humanities. The curriculum consisted of introductory lectures and demonstrations of the application of several digital technologies—Google Sheets, Google Trends, Google Ngram Viewer, GSS Data Explorer, IBM Watson Analytics— in Religious Studies research. While a class like Religion in the Digital Age may not pose a complete solution to the problem the Humanities face in an increasingly digitized and market-driven academic and professional worlds, it does offer the potential for a more integrated, timely, a conscientious approach to teaching Religious Studies and Humanities research. From the integration of digital technologies into religious studies curriculums we can learn more about the evolving place and importance of the humanities in our changing world. Many questions remain to be answers, but unanswered questions, and questions yet to be effectively framed, are exactly where the humanities excels. There is no question that embracing, rather than neglecting, the organic intersection of religion, humanities, and data will lead to students who are better prepare to answer and ask the right religious studies questions and will generate more sophisticated, and therefore employable, graduates.

    A Case Study of a Comprehensive Model of Global Education Strategy Based on Cosmopolitanism

    Get PDF
    Globalization is conceptualized as increased connectivity and interdependence among people worldwide. Its intensification causes many challenges, such as forced or voluntary migration, climate change, food insecurity, disruptions of chain management operations, economic inequality, and health crisis. Globalization alters the content and form of education at all levels, and it has an increasingly important role in higher education. By focusing on the importance of creating programs aimed to promote global collaboration, universities must promote the development of global citizenship to combat inequities and injustice created by globalization. The concepts of cosmopolitanism from Appiah and critical pedagogy from Freire have influenced global education. However, the lack of consensus on what should be included in a global strategy s still challenging for higher education administrators. As a Catholic institution, DePaul University developed a global education strategy, restructuring the administration of its international programs, creating a network of academic collaborations, and fostering an essential number of internationalization at home initiatives. The core aspects of this strategy were fostering a curriculum with a globally competent orientation, increasing the number of programs with social justice and community service orientation, and providing innovative opportunities for global education to minority students. This study was designed as secondary data analysis, including globalization, work environment, projections, higher education leadership, and international programs. After the analysis and conclusion, I described DePaul University’s case as the recommendation, explaining how implementing a comprehensive global education strategy served students’ critical global competence and global citizenship skills
