    Law Online Course summary

    Oxford Scholastica’s law course combines live discussion with legal case studies and practical assignments. You examine how legal rules interact with ethics, human rights and real disputes.

    The full curriculum builds toward a mock trial with tutor feedback. It suits students who want to test their interest in legal reasoning through active participation rather than simply watching lectures.

    What is Law Online Course?

    The Law Online Course is Oxford Scholastica Academy’s introduction to legal principles, ethical questions and the practical work of building an argument. Live tutorials connect discussion with case studies, contracts and independent assignments, giving students an active introduction to the subject.

    The first week covers foundational law, philosophy, legal history, human rights and corporate law. The second adds criminal and international law, morality and career exploration, ending with a mock trial. Students work with an academic tutor and receive personalized feedback on their progress.

    Why Succeed highlights Law Online Course

    • The curriculum connects legal rules with ethical dilemmas, helping students examine competing arguments rather than memorize definitions.

    • Marked writing, presentations and mock-trial feedback provide several ways to practice and improve legal reasoning.

    • Classes capped at 15 students create a setting for discussion and direct interaction with the tutor.

    • The course outline makes the difference between the introductory week and the full mock-trial experience clear.
