Not all CALI lessons are linear. To the student they may appear linear and some are in fact linear. But the option to create complex branching questions that allows the student to “choose his own adventure” through responses is available to the lesson’s author.
I recently learned a new phrase “noisy learners”* to describe
successful online learners. The same day, I noticed that the lettering for the “L” key on my laptop was wearing away. On the surface these appear to be unrelated events; yet I’d like to explore them both in this post, as there may be a tangential connection.
We don’t talk enough about our accomplishments here at CALI. I believe it is because we are too busy working on the “next thing” and barely pause long enough to get the word out about how other things are going. Technology in legal education is constantly changing, though it does often cycle back around to ideas we had in the past (*cough*, ebooks, distance learning, *cough*).
We’re going to try to change this.

Yes, CALI has a lesson on the new area of Drone Law. This lesson - Drones: Unmanned Aircraft Systems - covers both the miliary and civilian aspects of drone law. It is part of our Aviation law series and is written by Professor Wendy Davis of the University of Massachusetts School of Law at Dartmouth.
CALI Lessons are an excellent tool for learning the law. But the raw score is just the beginning!
A common question is "Can students take CALI Lessons more than once?" Absolutely! And therein lies a real power to improve your legal knowledge.

With the 25th anniversary of CALIcon approaching and the expanding offerings of CALI, I decided to make some infographics that make it a little easier to digest what it is we do and how long we've been doing it. Spoiler alert: A lot and for a long time! These will be traveling with us as CALI staff members attend different conferences, but in case you don't get to see them in person, here they are!
