Subject description
This subject introduces students to the law and practice of real property. It examines the core doctrines and interests
in land that underpin property transactions in New South Wales. The subject emphasises practice-oriented education
through consideration of the relationship between real property and other allied subjects; by connecting the doctrine
and practice of real property to the bureaucratic practices of property transactions; and by its emphasis on
problem-solving skills.

Subject learning objectives (SLOs)


Upon successful completion of this subject students should be able to:
1. Analyse the framework of contemporary real property law; its key legal doctrines and the implications of the
relationships between them.

2. Relate the basic doctrines of real property to the ways in which property is identified and transacted in practice.
3. Reflect, evaluate and improve their core skills in real property case analysis.
4. Evaluate the relative merits of different legal doctrines and strategies in assessing, advising and responding to
simulated ‘real world’ legal scenarios.

5. Analyse and monitor their own performance and implement strategies for developing their self-management,
particularly time-management.

Teaching and learning strategies


Strategy 1 Preparation:

Students will be encouraged and supported to undertake independent study. This will aid with the acquisition of core
knowledge and the key graduate attribute of self-management. Students will be expected to engage in a range of

20/07/2021 (Spring 2021) © University of Technology Sydney Page 2 of 10


knowledge and the key graduate attribute of self-management. Students will be expected to engage in a range of
activities before classes which will assist them to engage more deeply with the core knowledge in the subject, and to
apply it in practice-based scenarios.

Preparation activities include:


Engage with the set topic materials prior to attending class, in particular reading and analysing the identified cases.
Prepare tutorial questions including legal problems before tutorials in order to facilitate understanding of the issues.
Students are required to prepare their answers to all tutorial problems on each topic prior to the tutorial and to
demonstrate this by the quality through the quality of the pre-prepared answers (see Assessment Task 2) and the
quality of their participation in class discussion of the problems.
Scaffolded, self-paced learning exercises, including a video/quiz module which aids students to understand the
connection between basic doctrines of real property and the practice of property law.
Students are also encouraged to undertake both independent and group study to prepare for Assessment tasks.

A study guide that incorporates topic materials (readings and links to other on-line resources), tutorial questions and
legal problems is available to students on Canvas

Strategy 2 Active Learning: Students will interact with lecturers and other students on campus during lectures and
tutorials. In both of these formats students will be provided with opportunities to improve their skills of critical analysis
and problem solving through the use of scaffolded activities, flipped exercises, ‘breakout sessions’ and group problem
solving sessions. These enable students to practice Assessment items encourage students to undertake both
independent and group study and to applying their analytical and doctrinal skills to the practice-orientated problems
they will encounter in assessments.

Strategy 3 Collaborative learning: Students will engage in learning with their peers through a number of fora:
tutorials buzz groups and breakout sessions. Students collaborate to develop their critical thinking and core legal skills
of primary source analysis, and to apply these skills to practice-based scenarios.

Strategy 4 Feedback: Feedback is given for assessment items (except the final exam) by means of a combination of
generic class and student specific feedback. Feedback focuses not only on the right answer but also on the ways in
which student could have better approached the various tasks and strategies for improvement on future tasks. We also
offer formative, no-stakes tasks designed to provide ongoing feedback to students on their own performance. This
takes place though pre-prepared questions, and by means of self-paced quizzes.

Additional information
U:PASS (UTS Peer Assisted Study Success) is a voluntary “study session” where you will be studying the subject with
other students in a group. It is led by a student who has previously achieved a distinction or high distinction in that
subject, and who has a good WAM. The leader will typically prepare questions for you to work on, or if you have
specific questions or things you’re not clear on, you can bring them along, and the leader will get the group to work on
that. It’s really relaxed, friendly, and informal. Because the leader is a student just like you, they understand what it’s
like to study the subject and how to do well, and they can pass those tips along to you. Students also say it’s a great
way to meet new people and a “guaranteed study hour”.

You can sign up for U:PASS sessions in My Student Admin https://onestopadmin.uts.edu.au/. You will find it listed in
the area where you sign up for lectures, tutorials, etc. Note that sign up is not open until week 1, as it’s voluntary and
only students who want to go should sign up. Note that you don’t have to be struggling in the subject to attend U:
PASS – frequently students who are already doing well will do even better after attending U:PASS. If you have any
questions or concerns about U:PASS, please contact Georgina at [email protected] or check out the website:

Academic integrity
ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT BY STUDENTS

Some students against whom allegations of academic misconduct are brought say that they did not know or
understand the meaning of misconduct, or that if they did know and understand that they were simply careless or
under pressure. Are you confident that you know and understand the University definition of Student Misconduct? Are
you aware of the penalties if allegations of misconduct are proven?

Allegations of student misconduct are taken seriously by UTS and if proven can lead to penalties that may be relevant
to a student’s application to the Legal Profession Admission Board for admission to the Supreme Court of NSW to
practise as a lawyer.

Academic misconduct penalties may also be relevant to a graduate of the Graduate Diploma in Migration Law and
Practice in applying to the Migration Agents Registration Authority for registration as an Australian Migration Agent.

Academic misconduct includes the following:


cheating or acting dishonestly in any academic assessment (for example, in an exam or an assignment)
assisting or inciting another student to cheat or act dishonestly
plagiarism.

Plagiarism is easy to avoid, and referencing skills are an essential part of your legal education. In some subjects,
referencing and citation skills form part of the marking criteria. It is important that you understand how to avoid
plagiarism and have the practical skills to reference and cite all materials appropriately. Failure to acknowledge the
ideas and/or writing of others, and representing their work as your own is dishonest. If you did not write something
yourself, you need to say who did through a footnote or other obvious and acceptable referencing technique.

Students should note that academics have access to resources that can check for evidence of student plagiarism in
addition to their existing knowledge of the literature on the subject. Online plagiarism prevention is an important way
that you can check your own work prior to submission for any failure to reference sources appropriately. Students are
encouraged to use Turnitin as an opportunity to double-check their work for any potential issues prior to submission.

encouraged to use Turnitin as an opportunity to double-check their work for any potential issues prior to submission.

If you are confused about referencing skills please consult the University's online resource to help students learn and
practise their referencing skills. It is better to ask if you are confused and reference properly than to risk a penalty which
might form part of your Student Record. Check with your tutor if you have any queries.

Support
The Accessibility and Financial Assistance Service

The Accessibility Service can support students with disabilities, medical or mental health conditions, including
temporary injuries (e.g., broken limbs). The Accessibility Service works with Academic Liaison Officers in each Faculty
to provide ‘reasonable adjustments’ such as exam provisions, assistive technology, requests and strategies for
managing your studies alongside your health condition. If you’re unsure whether you need assistance, we recommend
getting in touch early and we can provide advice on how our service can assist you. Make an appointment with an
Accessibility Consultant (AC) on +61 2 9514 1177 or [email protected].

The Financial Assistance Service can assist you with financial aspects of life at university, including Centrelink
information, tax returns and budgeting, interest-free student loans and grants to assist with course-related costs.
Check eligibility and apply online and make an appointment on +61 2 9514 1177 or [email protected].

Statement about assessment procedures and advice


Late Submission Penalty
Any assessment task (excluding take home exams) submitted after the due date and time, will be either:
rejected without assessment (where the subject outline states that this will be the consequence of an assessment
task being submitted after the due time on the due date) or
penalised by way of loss of marks (five per cent (5%) of the marks for the assessment task will be deducted per day
for assessment tasks submitted after the due date, including Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays).

A penalty for late work will not apply in cases of approved extensions by the subject coordinator. Approved extensions
cannot be made without a request for extension or application for special consideration.

A penalty may not apply after due consideration of any submission (request for extension or application for special
consideration) by the Academic Liaison Officer (ALO), on behalf of students registered with Accessibility Services.

In the absence of compelling circumstances, no application for a request for extension will be accepted after the due
date.

Under no circumstances will assessment tasks be accepted after assessments have been returned to other students.

Final result
Marks of individual assessment components in a subject may be released by the subject coordinator prior to the end of
the Final Assessment period. The final mark for a subject is not determined until after ratification by the Faculty Results
Ratification Committee. After ratification, the final subject assessment results will be released officially in the manner
prescribed by the Provost. The final mark may differ from the initial total marks.
