Primary Research Group Inc. has published the Survey of Law School Faculty:
Post Pandemic Plans for Online Instruction, ISBN 978-157440-677-1

The report gives highly detailed data from 109 faculty at 55 major law
schools in the United States about their current experience and future
plans for online legal education.  The 74-page study helps its readers to
answer questions such as: how much time does it take faculty to prepare an
online class and what has been the learning curve?  How often do they
consult information technology staff? How easy is it for them to integrate
information from the library and other sources into their online courses?
Do they like teaching online? Which courses are most and least amenable to
online instruction? How much online teaching to they plan to do post
pandemic? How much do they feel that their universities will want them to
teach online?  What pandemic practices should be continued post pandemic?
What new plans do their law schools have to exploit online education for
new program in the near future?

Just a few of this report’s many findings are that:

• Faculty at private college law schools increased their consultations with
information technology staff by 187% over the prior, non-pandemic year.

• Faculty at highly ranked law schools were more likely than others to
experience problems integrating course content into course management
systems

• Female faculty were more eager than male faculty to retain online
teaching options.

• Law schools are aggressively developing new programs and approaches to
exploit the economic potential of distance legal education.

• More than 80% of faculty used Zoom in all of their classes in the past
year.

Data is broken out by program characteristics such as law school ranking,
program enrollment, public and private school status, as well as by
personal characteristics of the respondents such as their age, gender and
academic title.
