12. Frequently Asked Questions

13. General Principles Use the VLE Use the Discussion Board – but check it before you post Check the Task Instructions/Guidance No advice on substantive matters

14. Is the piece supposed to be structured like a traditional essay with an introduction, conclusion and then two parts for the examples?

15. Should I only be focusing on the topics an Example directly deals with?

16. How should I use academic and other sources in analysing my examples?

17. Do we need to include all examples in the essay or just provide a reference to them (and how do I reference a TV Episode)?

18. Is there an average recommended number of sources to use for each example?

19. Do our 'real world' examples have to be from this jurisdiction, or can they come from say the USA as long as we apply it to the English legal system?

20. How long should we spend describing our example?

21. Do (sub)headings, or the words used in cartoons or other examples count towards the word limit?

22. Do TV episodes or films have to be documentaries and therefore factual, or can they be fictional dramas?

23. Do the examples have to be recent or not? And if not, is there a limit on general time span for the examples i.e. within the last five years?

24. Are we able to use experience from the clinic module to talk about [specific issues].

25. How explicit do we need to be about relating learning in the course to our analysis? For example, is it necessary to say things like 'The concept of neutral partisanship, which we explored during Problem...' or is it sufficient to simply write about neutral partisanship without explicitly mentioning how/when we learnt about it?

26. Does the 'gravitas' of the examples carry any weight? For example, is a comedy show mocking some elements of legal practice 'substantial' enough?

27. Are we allowed to use examples which have been mentioned in the Plenaries? Can I use real world examples included in the Study Guides?
