As with so many new requirements from the ABA, I anticipate fairly little actual change for students and fairly significant administrative costs of appearing to comply with these new requirements.

Law faculty are now "required" "to participate every three years in educational activities that promote effective teaching."

Full-time faculty "absent extraordinary circumstances" "shall teach at least 80 percent" of the credit hours (it was previously "substantially all").

Schools must now review "learning outcomes at least every five years."

"All courses" in the first year "shall include at least one formative assessment" that includes "feedback" along with "academic support" for students who "fail to attain a satisfactory level of achievement.

Sections of a course must now have "the same minimum learning outcomes."

This year, the ABA Section of Legal Education & Admissions to the Bar has instituted extensive changes designed to micromanage individual sections of courses, what kinds of assessment must be completed in the first year, & more.
