This paper discusses the online Juris Doctor Program (JD Program) at RMIT
University. The first part of the paper provides a brief overview of the JD Program,
the graduate capabilities of the Program and key principles associated with the
teaching of law to online postgraduate students. In line with the literature in the area
of online teaching and learning, it is argued that online education needs to facilitate
deep learning and needs to be based on principles relating to student engagement
and active participation.
The second part of the paper showcases some of the courses that are taught on an
online basis in the JD Program. A blended approach is adapted to the teaching of the
advocacy as well as the Negotiation and Dispute Resolution courses. The Contracts
Law course adopts a conversational framework to engage online law students. In
discussing the online teaching and assessment practices in this course, the paper
demonstrates how the teaching and assessment practices in these courses enhance
deep learning and graduate skills and attributes essential for law students through
premising the activities on principles relating to active learning and deep learning.
