About Law-Related Lessons
From Clicklaw Wikibooks
This page from JP Boyd on Family Law—and other pages from this Wikibook that discuss BC family law litigation topics—are under editorial review to provide more thorough, current, and practical guidance. Since 2020, procedures, forms, and laws have changed significantly. While gross inaccuracies have been corrected, some details may still be outdated. These pages were not included in the 2024 print edition, and have been highlighted in orange where they appear in the navigation menu on this website. |
The Law-Related ESL Lessons were developed on Clicklaw Wikibooks by People's Law School as a resource for instructors of ELSA Net’s English language classes. The lessons feature legal topics that affect newcomers to Canada and British Columbia. The modules include reading material for learners, downloadable instructional packages at varying Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) levels, and assessment tools.
ELSA, which stands for English Language Services for Adults, provides basic and intermediate level English training for adult newcomers to Canada. ELSA is government-funded and is free to students.
These lessons feature student-centered, interactive activities on such legal topics as:
- driving,
- family law,
- employment law
- paying taxes,
- consumer law,
- criminal law, and
- landlord and tenant law.
