Law 12, version 06 (Print)

Law 12 helps students to understand how laws and regulations are made, applied, and reviewed. It also helps them to understand the role of law and the benefits of the legal system. Law 12 fosters skills and attitudes that enhance students' abilities to address legal, social, and ethical issues, and reflect critically on the role of law in society. The study of law also promotes the skills and abilities needed to clearly express ideas, argue effectively, logically, and accurately interpret the written word. To meet career challenges, students need to make decisions, think critically, solve problems, work both independently and with others, and recognize their legal rights and responsibilities.

PLEASE NOTE: The "All About Law" textbook (ISBN-10: 0-17-620148-3 or ISBN-13: 978-0-17-620148-7) is required for this course. Students need to purchase their own from local libraries, publishers, or online book stores (i.e., Nelson Thomson Learning, www.nelson.com).
