Digital Casebooks at Harvard

Harvard Law professor Jonathan Zittrain and his team at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society have been working to create an online casebook that is “ free, remixable and that can be used not just for a specific class, but for instructors anywhere .” They created a tool called Collage that allows professors to edit and annotate cases to create digital casebooks. The casebook creation tool is part of a new suite of educational tools called H20, which also includes a syllabus (called a “playlist”), a question tool, and a discussion tool. In additional to the The Atlantic blog post (linked above), more information about the project can be found at the Berkman Center , Best Practices for Legal Education blog , and the Ethan Zuckerman blog .
