Easily the worst unit I have done at UWA. The lecturers were lazy and uninspiring. After watching a couple of lectures, I gave up and read the textbook instead. Both lecturers were terrible at explaining concepts, and often neglected to provide the context of the legal concept they were discussing. One of the lecturers read off a script for every single lecture he gave. Tutorials were also scripted- my tutor did not facilitate any real class discussion, he just read off a sheet of paper. On the bright side, the midsem was fairly easy (non-IRAC questions) and was an online LMS exam. The end of semester exam was almost exactly the same as the 2022 exam (which can be found on onesearch by typing in the unit code). Most of the questions in the exam were also identical to the tutorial questions. If you have attended the tutorials, you will do well in the exam. Given the laziness of the unit coordinators, I assume that future exams will be the same. This was a painful unit, but reasonably easy to do well in. I would strongly suggest that you avoid it unless it is a compulsory unit in your major.

1. Didn't do ant welcome to unit announcement, didn't post content the very first week. 2. Up until the lecture we never saw the lecture slides 3. After the lecture he said he would post slides, didn't post jack 4. During the lecture his slides had like single word dot points 5. We have a tutorial on a public holiday, did not say anything about make up tutorials or anything. This dude needs to be fired.

Very engaging. The girl running my tutes was the best person and got you really thinking about things however if it weren't for her I would not recommend this unit to anyone. The actual lecturer and person running this unit was not good at all. It lacked organisation, some things were factually incorrect and he offered no assistance what so ever when regarding questions and fails to respond to emails.

Interesting content, exams not IRAC based although tutorials were. Exams were very theoretical and not IRAC based at all. Not given tutorial solutions, so best to take initiative to get feedback. Could have been more clearly explained in terms of exam structure. The two lecturers for the unit had different ways they uploaded content so that was a bit confusing. We were also told that a topic would be in the midden but it wasn't so they could be a bit better in terms of organisation.

Assessments unclear, limited feedback, lecturer seemed largely uninterested. Only recommend if compulsory
