Details

This package includes a physical copy of Criminal Law, 9/e by Elliott/Quinn as well as access to the eText and MyLawChamber.

 

Criminal Law clearly sets out the key topics your students will need to understand, unpicking the relevant case and statute law, whilst discussing the issues and academic debates that inevitably arise from this contentious area of law. The authors also provide criticism of the current law as well as discussion around reform.

 

MyLawChamber is a complete online teaching and learning platform designed to improve results by helping students quickly master concepts, and by providing educators with a robust set of tools for easily gauging and addressing the performance of students.

MyLawChamber engages students with high-quality multimedia learning experiences that help law students excel. In every exercise, students receive immediate feedback so they see mistakes right away, learn precisely which concepts are holding them back, and master concepts through targeted practice.

 

For Students:

  • Case Navigator (in conjunction with LexisNexis), a tool to help improve students’ case reading and comprehension skills.
  • Virtual Lawyer, an interactive scenario-based programme to help students apply their knowledge of the law to problem questions.

For Educations:

  • Pearson eText, a fully-searchable electronic version of your chosen text which you can customise, annotate, highlight and bookmark.
  • Test banks of multiple-choice-questions providing formative assessment.

 

Features

  • Key case boxes highlight the important cases your students need to remember
  • Topical issue boxes examine the law at work in notable examples from wider society
  • Figures and diagrams help students to visualise concepts and processes
  • Examination-style questions with detailed answer guidance help students to revise and prepare for assessments
