| Summary: | In digital era, IP education has important role to educate society for grappling digital world on how society will thrive, fully participate and diffuse information legally in cyberspace. This paper analyzes the need for IP education is no longer limited to university students, lawyers or IP practitioners. Therefore, this paper advocates new context of “new IP paradigm” that IP is necessary at many different levels of groups and IP education must be designed to support diversified needs in inter-disciplinary manner. However, globalization and the rapid proliferation of information-technology in digital era, coupled with the intangible nature of IP create challenges to structure effective IP teaching methodologies. This paper examines the current challenges of IP education on how: (a)eliminating gap between IP theories and practices; (b)updating programs to keep up with dynamic and rapid changes in IP laws and emerging IP issues;(c)capacity building of IP human resources/lecturers;(d)enhancing the curriculum d teaching methods in interdisciplinary approach. To overcome the challenges, this paper recommends the setting out “hybrid IP teaching method” of combining substantive IP law with skills training; developing the inter-disciplinary IP curriculum; developing IP building capacity mechanisms; and promoting “distance learning courses/e-learning” |
