Povzetek
V prispevku je predstavljen projekt Virtualne predavalnice (VIP) na Pravni fakulteti Univerze v Mariboru kot oblika kombiniranega študija v virtualnem okolju in v predavalnici, kjer so že z drugo generacijo študentov uspešno izvedli predmet Pravna informatika. Uvodoma so predstavljene raziskave s področja uporabe interneta med mladimi, opredeljen pojem e-izobraževanja, možnosti uporabe LMS in omenjene nekatere pravne fakultete, ki nudijo e-izobraževanje. Predstavljen je predmet Pravna informatika, ki nudi bodočim pravnikom tiste veščine dela z IT, ki jo bodo v poklicu redno uporabljali, ter odstira tista vprašanja, ki se zastavljajo ob pravnih vprašanjih ob uporabi IT v informacijski družbi. V nadaljevanju je podrobno predstavljena VIP ter potek dela in oblike komuniciranja s študenti preko forumov v elektronski obliki, kakor tudi potek dela v živo na predavanjih oziroma vajah. Še posebej je poudarjena vloga VIP pri ustvarjanju virtualne skupnosti in kreiranju baze znanja med študenti, ki je nastajala s pomočjo posebnega nagrajevanja oziroma preverjanja znanja. Omenjena je tudi tekmovalnost med študenti, zaradi katere avtor domneva, da je vodila k višji ravni znanja. V zaključku so predstavljena mnenja študentov, ki so bili z izvedbo predmeta Pravna informatika nadvse zadovoljni, in nekatere ideje za razširitev uporabe VIP pri drugih predmetih v pravnem izobraževanju na Pravni fakulteti Univerze v Mariboru.
