Legal Skills encompasses all the academic and practical legal
skills essential to the law student in one manageable volume. It is
an ideal text for first year law students and is also a valuable
resource for those studying law at any level. Clearly structured in
three parts, the book covers the full range of legal skills you
will need to succeed from the beginning of your law degree, through
your exams and assessments and into your future career. The first
part covers 'Sources of Law' and includes information on finding
and using legislation, making sure you understand where the law
comes from and how to use it. The second part covers 'Academic
Legal Skills' and provides advice on general study and writing
skills. This part also includes a section on referencing and
avoiding plagiarism amongst a number of other chapters designed to
help you through the different stages of your law degree. The third
and final part is dedicated to 'Practical Legal Skills'; a section
designed to help you to develop transferrable skills in areas such
as presentations and negotiations that will be highly valued by
future employers. The book contains many useful features designed
to support a truly practical approach to legal skills. Self-test
questions and diagrams are set in a user-friendly colour design.
More extensive activities give you the opportunity to take a 'hands
on' approach to tackling a variety of legal skills from using cases
to negotiation. Each skill is firmly set in its wider academic and
professional context to encourage an integrated approach to the
learning of legal skills. Online Resource Centre Legal Skills is
accompanied by an innovative online resource centre offering a
range of resources to support teaching and learning. - Video clips
of good and bad 'real life' moots in action bring the subject to
life for students. - Practical exercises appear throughout the book
so you can test yourself on your essay writing, problem solving,
revision and exam skills. - Examples of good and bad answers to
these exercises appear on the online resource centre providing
insight into the varying approaches that can be taken to the same
question with commentary on the strengths and weaknesses of each
answer. - Lecturers can track student progress using an online bank
of 200 multiple choice questions offering immediate answers and
feedback that can be customised and loaded on to the university's
VLE.
