Using Zoom on , make a 5-minute audio-visual presentation that explains how your specific Legal Studies bachelor’s degree, incorporating your chosen concentration and the technology related to it, can be used to improve the American legal system in some way.

For this assignment, you must demonstrate your understanding of how technology can be used, particularly with respect to your chosen concentration (legal studies ), to enhance at least one aspect of the American legal system and/or the publics ability to access it. In addition, you must demonstrate your proficiency with multiple forms of technology related to legal work, such as conducting electronic legal research, creating an electronic slide presentation, and delivering a talk via a common audio-visual software platform.

Think carefully as you choose a topic for this presentation project. This topic cannot be one you wrote about in any of your courses at APUS or any other institute of higher learning. This is your opportunity to explore in-depth a topic in which you may have great interest, especially within the context of practical application in the real legal world. Be brave: choose something about which others are not likely to address, not just a common Legal Studies theme. Explore and enjoy!
