    Abstract

    ![CDATA[This paper looks at the review being undertaken in 2007 of the design and delivery of Introduction to Business Law (IBL), a first year law subject for non law students at the University of Western Sydney (“UWS”). It addresses the inherent constraints upon the unit, in particular the multi campus nature of delivery of the unit and the large numbers enrolled. It also examines assumptions about the characteristics and learning modes of “Generation Y”, the demographic group who comprise a large portion of the UWS student cohort and considers how changing technology can be used to make the subject more relevant, engaging and contemporary.]]
