In addition to continued access to popular services like CALI Lessons, ClassCaster, Awards, The Conference for Law School Computing, and Instapoll; this year CALI provided member schools with more innovative services than ever.
We gave you brand new services.
Sarah Walton, professor of justice studies at the University of Maine at Augusta, is using CALI Lessons to teach troops in Afghanistan.
Now the 5,000-student college is reaching out to active-duty personnel stationed overseas. UMA will offer priority slots in five summer courses this year to a Maine Army National Guard unit stationed in Kandahar.

In combination with the proper tools, laptops actually have the potential to engage students and promote participation in the classroom.
This webinar will give a quick overview of a few free online tools like Google Moderator as well as other group question tools and CALI's very own Instapoll.

We have opened up registration for the 2009 Conference for Law School Computing.
Every couple of weeks, CALI will host a free online presentation on a subject related to technology and innovation in legal education aimed at law school faculty and staff!
We will focus on "how-to" introductory topics with the hope that you will learn something you can immediately apply. Attendee interaction during and after the presentation are encouraged.
This and next week's topic is an introduction to the Legal Education Commons.
This year, the theme for CALI's Conference for Law School Computing is... "Tools for Change."
Information on registeration, proposal submission, sponsorship opportunities, and other general conference information is (or will be) available at the conference homepage.
Sue Altmeyer, writing for the Law Librian Blog, here, has posted a nice blog about the benefits and opportunities of becoming a CALI author and writing legal research lessons.
Here's a quick video tutorial detailing how professors and librarians can upload their materials to the Legal Education Commons.
