Subclaims¶

q1 i? All three experimental-group lecturers reported moving from information providers to facilitators who use AI for knowledge development, devoting time to higher-order tasks such as analyzing AI reasoning fallacies. → Haifang Liu 2026 q1 i? Lecturers shifted toward performance tasks assessing higher-order thinking that GenAI cannot substitute, including oral defenses, timed in-class problem-solving, and moot court with process portfolios. → Haifang Liu 2026 (2)

Evidence¶

Haifang Liu 2026¶

Haifang Liu. (2026). AI-enhanced legal pedagogy: a case study of generative AI integration in property law courses. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-026-10698-9

q1 · i? · causal · r2

Thematic analysis of in-depth interviews with three law lecturers who delivered the experimental instruction; the article explicitly cautions this purposive sample of three limits transferability, so the themes are illustrative rather than representative, and no effect size is printed.

"Since routine explanations and feedback can be done by the iFlytek Spark teaching assistant, I am now able to devote my time to high-order tasks such as preparing students to analyze the fallacies involved in AI’s reasoning processes"

Haifang Liu 2026 (2)¶

q1 · i? · causal · r2

Instructor-reported assessment redesign summarized in Table 7, contrasting traditional formats with AI-enhanced alternatives such as oral case defense, timed scenario-based problem-solving, and collaborative moot court with process portfolio; a descriptive account with no effect size.

"Written case analysis (take-home) Oral case defense with follow-up questions Requires real-time reasoning beyond AI capability"
