Very well structured course that allows you to make an interesting first "dive" into English law.
Strongly recommended for those interested in acquiring preliminary knowledge of English Common Law.

A comprehensive introduction to English Law. The lecturers outline things in a very clear manner and the readings cover the topic well. The quizzes are quite demanding. It is a very enjoyable course.

The class is interesting, but my intent was to audit. I got to the end and find that in order to move the class to the 'completed' column, I have to do a peer-reviewed paper on what changes I would make to the English legal system. As a US citizen, I don't feel qualified to offer any advice to another country. I thought about writing about which English laws I might try to take to the US, which could be interesting but technically wouldn't fulfill the requirements of the class. -Also as a person with only casual interest, I'm not sure I could even do a decent job of that, so I will be unenrolling at the very end of the course.

I liked the course. However I think that is important for teaching any sort of law to question. This means to spark the debate within the knowledge you are teaching and not just assuming that the legal system where you ive in is perfect. Sometimes I would get a feeling that the professors were a little bit biased towards the efficiency and the said "excellence" of the UK legal system.
But overall I enjoyed the course, it was very interesting and easy to understand, I'm glad I took it because it serves me as a base on legal knowledge and analysis in general.

There were a few things lacking in the course. The information at times was not current, it had not been updated. a couple of glitches were experienced with the tests. Apart from this, the course was both fascinating and enlightening. The professors were learned, lucid and rich in teaching material. I would joyfully recommend this course to anyone eager to learn the history and basics of the English Law System or a student of Comparative Law Systems in the world.

The text and video presentations from the academics were excellent and I would recommend the course to others as a good first step in learning more about the Common Law of England and Wales. One quibble, I know it is difficult on a MOOC to create challenging formative assessments, but some more peer-reviewed mini-essays would have been an improvement as quizzes can be a test of memory alone and can inhibit higher-level thinking?

This course was so practical and helpful: a perfect short introduction to how the English legal system works. Already I'm putting what I've learned to use, and the course has completely transformed my understanding of news reporting of trials in England. My only criticism is that the course material needs to be updated, particularly the final section on EU law which names the wrong current President of the European Commission.

Excellent and very effectively compiled course - thanks for arranging it!
It was a occasional struggle to get the learning right as the course did not always provide necessary knowledge to reach pass in quizzes at the first attempt, no matter how much focus was put. I ended up using 2 - 3 times more in total for the course than the average time suggestions indicated.

Great introduction to english common law. Just observation maybe add more detailed information on bill of rights summary ie right to bear arms because its still relevant today. Would be nice to see why common law overides legislation briefly. Really enjoyed the course excellent insights to learn. Many Thanks++++
