Very well structured course that allows you to make an interesting first "dive" into English law.
Strongly recommended for those interested in acquiring preliminary knowledge of English Common Law.

A comprehensive introduction to English Law. The lecturers outline things in a very clear manner and the readings cover the topic well. The quizzes are quite demanding. It is a very enjoyable course.

The title is a bit of a misnomer, because it's really about the English and Welsh law system (including statute law and international law as well as common law) and enforcement systems.
Bits of it are incredibly basic but bits of it have some interest. I did learn bits - but not much.
Whomever wrote the English subtitles obviously never studied the course; there are many "sounds alike" errors in there. The course is also out of date by at least 5 months (things change!) and there's 1 important broken video link, some text as images etc. so some accessibility issues.
It's a bit of a mickey mouse course really; and the £37 for assessment and a certificate is ridiculous. Nice earner for the University of London.
Not taxing though

This is a standard foundational course. The video lectures are very short and concise; but I always found myself going back for explanation and reading the adjoing transcript in the event that I missed something.
The course is a good course. I had hoped for more of an opinion from the lecturers. And the "optional" discussion should be made mandatory because students do leave inciteful feedback, we should be given credit for these towards a grade.
I benefited greatly from taking this course. So I do say thank you to all our lecturers.

I give this course a 3 star out of 5. The reason why is that although the information is pretty good and decent it was still a little repetitive. Another thing is that the background music in every video is annoying and horrible background music I have ever heard in my life. The information could have been better and executed properly. Like some information I couldn't understand and most of them were very confusing. The videos are okay but a bit boring. Overall, decent course but could have done better with this course.

The course work was incredibly interesting, and a fantastic base to the English legal system, but the lecturers were difficult to understand, extremely boring to listen to and mumbled/stumbled through much of the script. They looked bored with the content, were poor presenters and visually poorly presented themselves.

In general, I was satisfied with the content, BUT please update the content, e.g when was the last election for European Commission or who is now the president... they are not up-to-date

The course was quite informative with some challenging tasks to complete. It would have been more relevant to cover more content on the subject (e.g. how the legal profession works).

Bunun benim için zor olduğunu düşünüyorum, bu yüzden dinlemeyi anlamak için ingilizcemi geliştirmem gerekiyor. umarım kendimi geliştirebilirsem genel hukuk okumaya çalışırım

Good overview, but it is let down by the lack of video tutorials. The course is using Reading materials as core teaching materials and not just as additional information.

A strong course with some great ideas in it. I would have liked to see a more explicit and embedded recognition of the rule of law throughout.

Let's start with the good: 1. The course gives the basics and covers many areas. 2. There is a glossary. 3. Basic concepts covered. Precedents, courts, EU, Constitution. 4. Discussions. They take up a lot of space in content that is scarce! but it’s very nice that our opinion is asked and you try to involve us in all sorts of activities. Very cute actually) Cons. There are more of them: 1. VERY LITTLE MATERIAL. I completed the course by speedrun in few days. At the same time, I read and watched everything mandatory. It is written that with hard work you can complete it in 3 weeks, but there is too little information for 3 weeks! 2. The information is superficial. By the end of the course, I still did not understand what common law, distinct court and secondary legislation are. I had to google all this extra. This didn't happen in my previous course, where everything was explained. Like, guys, you didn't explain ADR and asked to answer the questions about it. 3. Big job at the end. I didn't expect this. It seems to me that there is not enough information for us to study the entire system at least superficially and find shortcomings. 4. Nothing about EHRC. I wanted to take the course for my project, but in the end, unfortunately, I found very little useful. 5. Texts are little. You can read them in 2 minutes rather than in 10 or 20. Little to note. No clarifications. Like the difference between tribunal and ordinary court is that firsts are informal. And? That's it. No more differences talked. 6. Some documents does not open! Magna Carta is one of them! Anyway, thanks for the course! It was exciting, I improved my English and killed time. The certificate is beautiful)
