I think this plan is really quite well-balanced and sane. Also kudos to UChicago Law School for including an actual implementation plan here, not just vague thoughts.

Some bits I found interesting:

[For required courses in year 1]

  > Across all 1L sections, we will prohibit the use of electronic devices such as laptops, tablets, and phones in the classroom.

  > Additionally, examinations will be in-class without access to the internet, electronic files, or apps. And most of all, we will continue our longstanding tradition of emphasizing the Socratic Method as part of these courses.

[For Legal Research & Writing year 1]

  > Throughout the year, students will write without AI, while also using AI for research, revision, iterating on drafts, and preparation for oral argument. Students and their instructors will review together both their writing and their use of AI.

[Electives]

  > For these courses, the use of the Socratic Method, no-device policies, and in-class, no-access exams will remain, but as default rules rather than required policies.
  > In all elective courses, we will encourage instructors to experiment with pedagogy.

[Upper level writing]

  > We will be adding one additional requirement, which is that all students will be required to engage in an oral discussion of their SRP with their supervising professor, in an in-person setting.
