Abstract

The aim of this paper is to investigate the contribution of experiential learning in teaching in the field of legal education as an appropriate instrument for improving competences identified as fundamental for new legal professionals. Several technological changes are being experienced in legal professions, with increasing insertion for automation and artificial intelligence (AI) in the law market. In this scenario, identifying the skills needed by these new professionals was sought, so that, based on the experience of teaching theory, a new method of legal education
focused on experiential learning in law was proposed. Therefore, for methodos, doctrine of analysis was used, based on the theoretical frameworks of education (Kolb and Moon), associated with conclusions from the profile of legal professionals on legal research in Centro de Ensino e Pesquisa em Inovação (CEPI) for designing a new discipline for the law course at Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV) Direito SP, whose results were evaluated and presented in this article. This study concluded, through participant observation and analysis of the
logbooks produced during the semester, that the method used was important for developing competences identified as relevant for the creation of new legal professionals who, namely, present creative and agile problem solving, work together in diverse groups and construct, execute and lead new projects.
