Description
This workshop is primarily for those studying on the LLB course under the Criminal Law module.
The aim is to provide assistance in the form of focussing your assignment questions to better answer the assigned question.
Starting a longer form assignment question can seem daunting. This session will breakdown the different places you can obtain sources, how to organise what you know and what you need to know. It will also help you with how to identify your own strengths in choosing which topics to select.
Workshop objectives
To feel more confident about:
- The requirements of the upcoming Criminal Law Assessment.
- How to remain focussed when drafting a response to a long form question.
- How to use structure to create a comprehensive body of work.
