Online platforms have become an important avenue for legal education among college students. The legal information provided by online platforms is characterized by timeliness, comprehensiveness, and interactivity. By updating legal news in real-time, these platforms help students stay informed about the latest legal changes and high-profile cases, thus enhancing their legal awareness and sensitivity. Online platforms offer diverse content formats, such as legal text interpretations, case analyses, and online courses, providing students with abundant learning resources. Interactive learning features, such as online discussions and mock court activities, further enhance students' legal reasoning and practical abilities. However, challenges such as the accuracy and authority of information, disparities in legal literacy, and information overload remain significant issues. In conclusion, online platforms offer flexible, diverse, and interactive learning opportunities, helping to improve students' legal literacy and promote the integration of theory and practice.
