For new students - understanding the different elements of a case

With A-level results out today, and clearing swinging into action, I thought that the following may be useful to those wanting to do some pre-course preparation.

Designed as a resource to accompany the text Strong, How to Write Law Essays and Exams, a recent case is annotated to show what the various elements are, and will help students understand how to read a case. 
It comes from the Oxford online resource centre which publishes material designed to complement its textbooks. These cover a range of legal areas including contract, public, tort and criminal law. 

Study skills help

If it's a while since you've had to write an essay or give a presentation, have a look at the Study Skills section under the Subject guides heading of the Library web site.
Within this section are details of helpful books you can find within the Library itself, as well as links to web sites which are there to help you get the most out of your time as a student.
