Plagiarism and Punctuation and Grammar: at every school these are basic issues that absolutely must be addressed for your new students. But there is only so much in-class time to devote to these issues.
We highly recommend school administrators, faculty, and students take a look at CALI's Plagiarism Lesson by Prof. Rebecca Trammell and Punctuation and Grammar, Basic and Advanced, Lessons by Prof. Wayne Sheiss.
We have two guest presenters for upcoming webinars on law school professionals' use of Twitter.
1) Friday, August 7, 3 PM Eastern
Twitter from a Law School Communications Professional's Perspective - Tonya Oaks Smith (@marleysmom), Director of Communications at the UALR Bowen School of Law (@bowenlaw). More details...

You should take a look at Professor Richard Leiter's blog post about the 2009 CALI Conference.
And don't forget, Sarah Glassmeyer had a great post on her blog, as well.
We're very appreciative of write-ups like these, and we take these and other forms of feedback about the conference into consideration as we plan the next year's conference.

The written student evaluations from each class have been overwhelmingly positive regarding all technology, but the podcasting was a particular favorite. Students revealed that they listened to the podcasts on iPods as well as work computers. They could listen during their commutes, which in our urban environment frequently took several hours each day. One student told me that she was planning to listen to the entire set of podcasts while she was running the New York Marathon.
