Henry Prakken's teaching at Utrecht University.

• Recht en Informatica (Law and Computer Science). Bachelor programmes Informatica (Computer Science) and Informatiekunde (Information Science).
• Computational Argumentation (formerly known as Commonsense Reasoning and Argumentation). Master programme Artificial Intelligence.

• In Utrecht I also supervise master theses AI, mostly on computational argumentation, AI & law and machine ethics.

In Groningen I taught part of a bachelor course called E-thics (2018-2023, two lectures on legal AI applications), and a bachelor course on legal argumentation (2015-2023, in Dutch: official name Juridische Argumentatie. My reader for the latter course (in Dutch) is downloadable under Creative Commons license CC BY-NC 4.0, which means that you are free to use it for non-commercial purposes as long as you acknowledge the original source, including my name (a layout problem on p. 8 corrected on Dec 6, 2025). Earlier I taught courses on Computer Law for non-law students (2005-2014, half of the course, in Dutch) and on Legal Knowledge-Based Systems (2004-2011, in Dutch) and I gave lectures on legal argumentation in various other courses.

I gave series of guest lectures on several occasions:

• Formalizing Practical Argumentation, Department of Computer Science, Universidad Nacional del Sur, Bahia Blanca (Argentina), June 1998.
• Argumentation Logics, Institute of Logic and Intelligence, Southwest University, Chongqing (China), May 26 - June 4, 2010.
• AI in Court, UNA Digitalized! Masterclass, Jagiellionian University, Krakow (Poland), 29 August - 2 September 2022.
• AI in Court (updated version), Department of Law, University of Bologna (Italy), 19-28 November 2024.

I co-organise(d) two summerschools at the European University Institute, Florence (Italy):

• Summer Schools on Law and Logic (2012-2018).
• AI & Law Summer Schools (since 2019).

I co-organised the Spring School on Argumentation in Artificial Intelligence and Law, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou (China), 10-12 April 2018.

I have given tutorials on several occasions. For example:

• Tutorial on AI & Law, given as part of the course Trends and Topics in Multi-Agent Systems of SIKS, the Netherlands research school for Information and Knowledge Systems. Utrecht, The Netherlands, June 6th, 2019.
• Tutorial Introduction to formal models of argumentation for the Dundee Summerschool on Argumentation: Computational and Linguistic Perspectives, September 4th, 2014.
• Tutorial Formal Models of Balancing in Legal Cases for JURIX 2014, December 10th, 2014.
• Tutorial Argumentation in Law for ACAI 2013, the ACAI Summerschool on Computational Models of Argument, King's College London, UK, 1-5 July, 2013.
• Tutorial Argumentation in Agent Systems with Martin Caminada for the 2007 European Agent Systems Summer School, Durham University, UK, 31 August 2007.
