Class information Lectures

CLASSES Lectures

Lectures are where the majority of course content is taught. They are almost always recorded and uploaded to the Wattle course page via Echo360. However, it is important to try and attend the lectures in person because these recordings can fail. It is also a good opportunity to meet other law students in your first year of law! TIP: most lecturers will post their lecture slides on Wattle. Be sure to use these!

Tutorials

Tutorials are small classes held with an individual tutor. They are designed to be interactive to aid your understanding and learning of course content. Attendance and participation in tutorials often make up a part of your marks for the course. These are easy marks to get so be sure to go to every tutorial!

Tutorials require an online sign-up on Wattle. These will take place sometime in O-Week or week 1 as law tutorials generally won’t start until Week 2. The course convenor will most likely announce when the sign-ups open online.

TIP: Be sure to make not of this in your diary as most tutorials become full within the first minute of opening!

Seminars

Seminars are similar to tutorials but are slightly larger in size. Foundations of Australian Law (LAWS1201) is taught in this way.

TIP: Just like tutorials, check the course guide to see what participation requirements your seminar requires.
