Artificial intelligence and legal education: its incorporation during the Covid-19 pandemic

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to analyze the incorporation of artificial intelligence in the teaching of law at the university level during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is important because the need for its incorporation is recognized, which would promote reading, critical thinking, investigative culture and improve the academic performance of law students. A qualitative research was developed, with a non-experimental design and an exploratory level. An instrument was elaborated, the same one that was validated by means of the Deplhi method. The instrument was applied to lawyers who work as teachers in Peruvian universities. The results show the importance of the incorporation of technology, which allows a virtual education process, becoming a complementary tool in the training processes, with which the replacement of teachers is feared. It was concluded that the incorporation of artificial intelligence in the training process of the law student is feasible because it would prioritize digital literacy. © 2022, Universidad del Zulia.
