Instruction is facilitated by an instructor who guides students through each lesson and is available to answer questions and provide feedback on assignments. Each week, students receive an assignment over the Internet that includes reading assigned chapter(s) from the textbook. Students complete a short assignment that is forwarded electronically to instructors or posted it to the electronic class Discussion Board while also taking a self-check test. Additionally, students collaborate with other students on some assignments using electronic discussion boards, chat rooms, and e-mail. The 11-week course requires a mid-term examination and final examination which are delivered electronically. Overall grades for the class are based on student performance on the weekly assignments, mid-term examination and the final examination. Major topics include Ethics, Law and the Judicial System; the Judicial Process; Criminal Law; Tort Law; the Essentials of Contract Law; Contractual Capacity; Legality; Written Contracts; Third Parties in Contract Law; Title and Risk of Loss in Sales of Goods; Performance and Breach of the Sales Contract; Warranties and Product Liability; Bailments; Real Property; Wills; Trusts; and Estates.
