12. Reflections from a student taught legal ethics through lecture methodology
“I think it isn’t necessary to attend the legal ethics class as lecturing can't instill and make students appreciate the value of legal ethics and professional responsibility.” Jame, 3rd year law student, Thailand
I have talked to the students about the subjects they don't like. It's all about teaching methods that make them don't like the subjects. Moreover, the students think it is not important to pay attention to the legal ethics class because they can read the code of conduct by themselves.
methodology he associated with the teaching of ethics ( lecturing) was ineffective.

19. “We are delighted to be partnering with our friends and colleagues Hebert Smith Freehills and the Australian Government Solicitor on this project. It is a great opportunity for us to collaborate on issues we feel strongly about, and to help shape future generations of law students and lawyers.” - Lisa Dewey, New Perimeter “The curriculum development project is an exciting opportunity for HSF lawyers to become involved in a grassroots learning project which will have a long-term impact in Southeast Asian universities. The project also provides a unique opportunity to collaborate with lawyers from other firms and to learn from their experience of pro bono practice. The workshop provided a platform for us to distil the key concepts of ethics and pro bono from our own experience as practitioners in a format which can be transferred to Southeast Asian law students.” - Lynn McMahon, Herbert Smith Freehills “AGS is excited to be working with our colleagues at BABSEA CLE, DLA Piper and Herbert Smith Freehills on this innovative project to arm the next generation of lawyers with knowledge of the ethical standards they need to uphold and the importance to assist those less fortunate in the community.” - Geetha McNair, Australian Government Solicitor
