摘要

The rapid evolution of digital technology and the advent of new AI tools compel contemporary legal education to rethink how it prepares law students for the digital age, emphasizing the need for lifelong learning in an increasingly dynamic information ecosystem. This requirement means prioritizing not only the development of core legal skills, but also contextual supplemental skills needed for an effective human–machine interaction. To investigate the multifaceted nature of AI literacy among law students, this paper draws on a qualitative empirical study that probes the attitudes and experiences of faculty members integrating AI into the law classroom. The results highlight the need for a holistic approach to developing institutional policies and curricular strategies that integrate AI literacy into legal education. The authors hence propose a conceptual framework for legal education competencies, mapping the intersection of core legal skills, contextual information literacy, terminological competence, and AI (legal) literacy.
