Bio:
Professor Jack Graves is a faculty member at Touro Law Center, where he teaches Contracts, Business Law, Arbitration, and Digital Lawyering (technology-leveraged legal service delivery), and his substantive scholarship largely focuses on commercial law and arbitration (both domestic and international). His innovative first-year teaching text, LEARNING CONTRACTS (West 2014), abandons the traditional law school casebook method in favor of individual lessons containing learning objectives, explanations, examples, and problems in support of a flipped, assessment-centered classroom approach to teaching and learning. Graves also serves as Director of Digital Legal Education at Touro, leading initiatives to add online offerings of traditional law courses, as well as innovative new courses in “digital lawyering.” He has most recently turned his textbook on International Sales Law & Arbitration into an interactive online course for fully asynchronous delivery. Graves brings a multi-dimensional perspective to his work, with a unique blend of experiences in business management, commercial and corporate law practice, and legal education. His current work focuses on the leading edge of technology-leveraged scalable process in both the delivery of legal services and the delivery of legal education.
