Reflective Practice Exercise 1: Written communication and problem solving skills (ILAC)
Problem solving and written communication are two learning outcomes of Company Law (refer section 2.2 of the course profile). They are also two generic, employability and transferable skills covered in your Bachelor of Commerce degree. Problem solving and written communication are:
• Generic skills as distinguished from technical legal or accounting knowledge (e.g. knowing the legislation and case law on directors' duties);
• Employability skills because graduate employers really value accounting students possessing these skills;
• Transferable skills because they can be used in a variety of business situations (i.e. not just in Company Law!).
ILAC (Issue, Law, Application and Conclusion) is a method for teaching and learning problem solving and written communication skills. You need to identify the relevant legal issue(s) from a set of facts (i.e. the problem); identify the case law and legislation which will help you solve the issue; apply the relevant law to the relevant facts from the question to solve the issue and then provide a summary of your answer to the issue. Your answer needs to persuade the reader that what you are saying is right. Persuasive writing is a written communication skill.
You persuade the reader by justifying the statements you make when applying the law.
The first reflective practice exercise requires you to answer the following questions:
1. Describe your experiences with the ILAC method in 2105AFE Introduction to Business Law. Your experiences may include (but are not limited to) assessment items such as the final exam and assignments in which ILAC was assessed.
2. Reflecting on:
o Your experiences in Introduction to Business Law;
o Any feedback you received during that course (you may still be able to access the course site on L@G); and
o The first two weeks of this semester in Company Law;
What steps can you take to improve your written communication and problem solving skills in Company Law?
Please make sure you read the instructions before completing this exercise Maximum 200 words (total)
