Course delivery
LL.B. (Hons) (Blended) students will engage with both virtual and classroom-based learning environments, providing them with both legal knowledge as well as the computer skills necessary to excel in the modern-day workplace upon completion of their studies. Weekly pre-recorded video lectures are supplemented with weekly Moodle activities to reinforce learning, such as conducting research for contributions to a discussion forum, a topic glossary or discussion-based topic page, as well as undertaking online quizzes and contributing to blogs on subjects covered. Students are also assigned weekly reading based on the lecture topics.

Fortnightly live “webinars” are virtual tutorials between students and their lecturer using video-conferencing software and enable learners to engage with lecturers on topics covered, facilitating student presentations, debates and even moot courts online. Students attend campus for ‘live’ days for each course on a monthly basis generally; ‘live’ days consist in structured discussions and activities, such as group or project work, or Q&A sessions with lecturers.

Hide-About the course
The LL.B. (Hons) (Blended) Law programme is an innovative and interactive teaching and learning experience, delivered through a combination of online and classroom-based learning. Each course is conducted via weekly online lectures and activities to be reviewed at the learner’s convenience, weekly assigned reading, fortnightly tutorial-style live “webinars” via conferencing technology and classroom-based workshops, or ‘live’ days, which take place on weekends on a monthly basis.

The LL.B. (Hons) (Blended) programme is fully comparable to the full-time and part-time LL.B. (Hons) (Blended) programmes at Griffith College and only the mode of delivery differs, providing learners with professional or personal commitments, and those living outside of the greater Dublin area with a more flexible offering. This course is validated by QQI at Level 8 on the National Framework of Qualifications and content and assessment are identical to the full-time and part-time LL.B. (Hons) programmes. Students visit the Dublin campus on a monthly basis for ‘live’ days for each course, and, they have access to all facilities provided to full-time and part-time students, as well as the option of participating in the wide range of extra-curricular activities undertaken by full-time and part-time law students at Griffith College, such as mooting, debating, FLAC and the Law Society.

Course content
Flexibility is offered to LL.B. (Hons) (Blended) learners, who have the freedom to access course content at their convenience alongside comparatively fewer obligations to attend campus than those of parttime and full-time students.
