This reflective journal is about English Legal System oral presentation for the first semester in my university' life. Along the preparations, we learn how to use technology to make presentation slide. My group members always spend time together to discuss about the assessment. In this assignment, I have learnt how the statutory interpretation works under the english legal system. I know how crucial and important of english language play part of interpreting the meaning of the context. We done a lot of research from textbook materials and internet. We share our idea and thought to resolve the questions of the topic. Throughout this assignment, my group members and I improved on communication skills.
Video presentation regarding tort law assignment. This assignment have to include all the element of trespass to a person. Throughout this acting of the video,I have deeper understanding about the liability and the element of tort. If anyone of my friend deal with the same situation, I can give advise to them so that they know their legal rights for an wrongful act. Although my group members and I were first time work together but we still manage to communicate well with each other thus our relationship improved a lot. I feel grateful when we finally submitted our group assignment as positive attitude were projected on our piece of hardwork.
In tort video assignment,I learnt much principle of law and I know well about trespass to the person. Throughout the acting of the video, I understand about the element of tort including battery,assault and false imprisonment. With the case law provided, I can know that the liability of a person towards his/her wrongful act. I have learnt how to cooperate with my group members while presenting the video. I communicate a lot with my classmates as we can discuss about the acting part of the video. I also learnt how to combine the scene of the acting part to a video and video editing too. It is a great experience and this will help me to prepare myself for future career purpose. I become more self-independent while given the task that perform my job individually and have higher self-confidence while I can project the elements of tort for example as a defence I kicked one of my group members.
First time oral presentation regarding english legal system assignment. Preparation had to be done a lot during the process. A lot of research had done and information shared within group members via email and ppt slide. Great experience with collaborative goals. Textbooks and materials are always used for the purpose of referring.
Contract assignment may seem to be complicated this is because there is a lot case law regarding to the contract law.Standard contract terms also have an important role to play in international commerce.Contractual relationship has to be performed as duty of legal obligations and legal rights must be arise. Formality of contract performed validity and enforceability of a contract. Throughout the assignment, I realised the intention to create legal relations is the supportive rule of law the formation of a contract for example offer,acceptance and consideration. There is a need of intention to create legal relations therefore legal duty arise within the party that intended to enter a contractual relationship.
