Thanks to Julia Belt (Wisconsin) who responded to my inquiry as follows:
Based only on one instance, I remember a student who followed his
undergrad practice of getting everything he could down on his
computer. He realized that did not work in his law classes. He said he had a lot
of notes, but couldn't really get anything from them. Typing
everything that is said in a typical big section quasi-Socratic dialogue class is
probably not useful.
You can get a taste of that in a book by Prof. Elizabeth Mertz, "The
Language of Law School" which gives us transcriptions of law school
class discourse. The book gives us brief excerpts from various classes, but
one can see that using a transcription of even one class period would
be mind-numbing.
