Guides, trainings, and other resources to build your skills with generative AI.
Artificial Intelligence in Legal Research — An introduction to generative AI research tools and how they're used in law school and in practice.
Copyright, Author's Rights, and Generative AI — An overview of the deals that academic publishers are making with AI developers, as well as guidance for scholars on how to navigate the changing landscape of academic publishing.
BC Law Library Legal Research Badge — A self-paced, online program created by teaching and research librarians to help BC Law students master core legal research skills, including the effective and ethical use of generative AI, for practice and the NextGen Bar Exam. Demonstrate your expertise by adding a verified credential to your LinkedIn profile.
Hotshot Training Modules — Short video courses on practical AI topics, from LLM fundamentals and prompting to risks and legal ethics. BC Law students can follow a customized track to a Generative AI Fundamentals Certificate.
BC Law Generative AI Fundamentals — A customized, self-paced learning track for BC Law students who want a general introduction to generative AI: what it is, its legal applications, its limitations and risks, and more.
What's Behind the Answer? AI Literacy for Law Students — This workshop is designed to help 2L and 3L law students understand how generative AI (GAI) tools generate answers, including what data the tools are trained on and their inherent limitations. Demonstrating that students must apply the same critical evaluation skills they use when conducting research on any online source. Participants will learn practical criteria for assessing and selecting the right tool for a given research task, rather than assuming all AI tools are interchangeable.
