Academic Development Materials

The Academic Development Materials page is designed to serve as a centralised space for UNSW Law Students to access all of the academic resources created by the UNSW Law Society. On this page you will find our “skills workshops” series, videos to assist with “university life and study skills” as well as our core and elective course revision workshops. We hope that this webpage will improve student accessibility and engagement with these resources and enable students to use and view them at their own convenience. This page will be updated throughout the course of 2024 with more materials as they are created, so make sure you keep checking the page throughout the year for more resources created by talented members of our student community!

Peer Tutor Program

The Peer Tutor Program is available to Law dual degree students and Juris Doctor (JD) students in their first year of Law School. The aim of the program is to develop your understanding of legal concepts and skills needed for the study of Law.

You can expect to meet with your tutor, a senior Law student, for one hour per week from Week 3. This is your opportunity to practise for class participation, to deal with materials you find difficult and to practise your legal skills, such as case-reading and statutory interpretation.  

All first-year students will be emailed early in the term about how they can register for the Peer Tutor Program via Moodle. 

Revision Workshops

Still 6 weeks behind on readings? Have no idea where the semester went? Then have no fear, the Education team is here! During STUVAC, the Law Society has prepared study facilities and final exam workshops - just for you.

Stay tuned here and on our UNSW LawSoc Facebook page for application announcements.
