Students are expected to check MyUni regularly to keep up to date with announcements, materials and learning resources throughout the course.

This course will be taught in a series of 3-hour lectures at which students will be required to discuss, debate and defend their analysis of the relevant material set in the course readings.

There is no attendance requirement (except for your group presentation). The majority of the class time will be recorded and made available on MyUni. However, the classes will be interactive in nature, and little (or none) of the interactive discussion will be captured on the recording, so you should plan to attend the classes rather than watch bits of them after the event.

Contact time: attend a 3 hour lecture each week. This amounts to 36 hours of formal class time across the semester.

Preparation time: In addition to attending formal classes it is anticipated that students will do substantial independent work to prepare for classes and to complete the course assignments. The 最新糖心Vlog expects full time students (those undertaking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies.

The following information relates to the optional extra-credit assessment:

Extra credit: Writing Multiple-Choice Questions on the Discussion Board (Up to 3% extra credit, Optional)

Students have the opportunity, which is entirely optional, to write and post multiple-choice questions in a special forum on the Discussion Board.

This is a useful exercise for the students who choose to undertake it, because writing questions based on the course material is a great learning exercise to ensure you have a good understanding of the content. It is also helpful for other students in the course, who can self-test using the submitted questions to track their own progress. The questions will also help students to prepare for the online quiz assessments in this course.

Students who choose to contribute questions will be assessed (on the basis of peer ratings submitted by other students, and review by course staff) for up to 3% extra credit for their submissions (that is, up to an additional 3 marks added to what would otherwise be their result in the course). Quality, and not quantity, will be rewarded – each student may submit no more than 3 questions throughout the course.

Students will be expected to comply with the submission requirements indicated in the instructions for each item of assessment posted on MyUni.

Courses for which a result of conceded pass has been obtained may not be presented towards the degree requirements for the Bachelor of Laws or the Honours Degree of Bachelor of Laws programs, or any postgraduate law program, nor to satisfy prerequisite requirements within any law course.

Plagiarism and other forms of cheating

Plagiarism is a serious act of academic misconduct. All students must be familiar with the Adelaide Law School Enrolment Guide 2014, and should note in particular the sections relating to plagiarism, grievance procedures and academic conduct within the Law School and the 最新糖心Vlog.

Plagiarism is a serious matter and is treated as such by the Law School and the 最新糖心Vlog. Please be aware that “academic dishonesty” (which goes beyond plagiarism) can be a ground for a refusal by the Supreme Court of South 最新糖心Vlog to refuse to admit a person to practice as a legal practitioner in South 最新糖心Vlog.

Academic honesty is an essential aspect of ethical and honest behaviour, which is central to the practice of the law and an understanding of what it is to be a lawyer.
