| In 1990, Richard was the co-founder (with Professor Alan Paterson) of the Centre for Law, Computers and Technology at the Law School of the University of Strathclyde, to which he was appointed Visiting Professor. He has been a part-time, full professor there since 2001. |
| His teaching responsibilities have include lecturing to undergraduates, leading Masters seminars (the full-time and the distance learning Ll.M degrees in IT and Telecommunications Law www.law.strath.ac.uk/courses), supervising research students, and acting as an external examiner for doctoral work in the UK. |
| Working with Professor Paul Maharg and with Scott Walker, at the Glasgow Graduate School of Law (www.ggsl.strath.ac.uk) Richard has also produced several hours of web-cast, an e-learning resource that is available on the law school network. Students at all levels (including those working towards their Diplomas in Legal Practice) are thereby able, essentially, to attend a virtual tutorial on the impact of IT on the legal world. |
| Richard also organises the Centre's annual retreat (held each year since 1993), an event which brings together, at Ross Priory, on the banks of Loch Lomond, a small group of international experts on legal technology for a two-day seminar on emerging issues in the world of law and IT. |
