This unit is very enjoyable and also contains extremely useful information that has helped me as a young adult. The lectures (both Kate and Aidan’s) were really fun to go to, but I especially loved Kate’s as she would always include input from students in a way that was both informative and entertaining. The tutorials definitely improved my understanding of the lecture content by putting it into context by creating and working through various scenarios. The exam was open book and consisted of questions found in the lecture slides or covered in tutorials, so if you want an easy D or HD make sure you attend both!! Would definitely recommend this unit, even if you’re not particularly interested in law.

SUCH A GOOD UNIT. The two lecturers, Kate and Aidan, are amazing and so engaging. I love that you have the opportunity to basically decide what is in the lectures each week through a question platform. The content is all super relevant and interesting, and genuinely made me want to pursue law. The main assignment is really flexible and you can basically choose to do whatever you want as long as you cover the topic. The tutorials are also super fun and engaging. I could not recommend this unit enough, even if the law doesn't particularly interest you.

Absolutely in LOVE with this unit! Everything is so relevant to what you'll encounter as adult such as housing and renting, employment, healthcare, driving etc. and the lecturers make the most basic adulting endeavours so interesting! Kate has an incredible sense of humour and brings so much contagious energy! And Aidan's enthusiasm and passion takes lectures to the next level. I'm studying biomedical science but these two make me want to pursue Law! The best unit coordinators & lecturers at UWA- you won't be disappointed! And each lecture is interactive! You can send in questions that range from simple and relevant to extreme and wacky and Kate will always strive to answer it in her own exciting way. Assessments include tutorial participation (easy marks as the whole tutorial is just discussion) as well as a creative assignment where you just share laws surrounding a certain topic using a magazine, poster, animation, podcast, Tik Tok, you name it! And exam is open book. I'll certainly miss this unit and would recommend it to absolutely anyone.

This unit is AMAZING! Kate offers such great insight into the practical functions of law. Every week we focus on different topics, ranging from the law surrounding assault to the laws involved in house ownership and renting. The unit gives really great insight into how the law affects adults, which I've found really helpful. Every lecture and workshop is so informative, well structured and downright interesting. Class discussions are amazing, and kate will answer any of your absurd questions. I would definitely recommend it, it's always the highlight of my week!

Loved this unit so much!!! Kate and Aidan (the lecturers/tutors) were amazing. The tutorials were fun and I always felt like I was learning something I would need to know later in life. The lectures were always really interesting. The mid-semester assignment had a lot of freedom and the final exam was really easy since it was open-book. I really didn't need to put in too much effort and still ended with an HD. Would 100% recommend doing this unit as an elective/broadening :)

This unit was just introduced this past sem, but was honestly intriguing and was a small work load. There is a really short presentation and a creative midsem assessment. The topics covered were generally interesting, and the lecturers are really friendly. This is a good unit to introduce you to how the law actually impacts our everyday lives.
