, Dear Student
As part of this tutorial letter, we wish to inform you that Unisa has implemented a transformation
charter based on five pillars and eight dimensions. In response to this charter, we have also
placed curriculum transformation high on the agenda. For your information, curriculum
transformation includes the following pillars: student-centred scholarship, the pedagogical
renewal of teaching and assessment practices, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and
the infusion of African epistemologies and philosophies. These pillars and their principles will be
integrated at both the programme and module levels, as a phased-in approach. You will notice
the implementation thereof in your modules, and we encourage you to fully embrace these
changes during your studies at Unisa.
1 INTRODUCTION
We are pleased to welcome you to this module and hope that you will find it both interesting and
rewarding. We will do our best to make your studies of the law of sale and lease successful.
You will be well on your way to success if you start studying early in the semester and resolve to
do the assignments properly.
You will receive a number of tutorial letters during the semester. A tutorial letter is our way of
communicating with you about teaching, learning and assessment.
Tutorial Letter 101 contains important information about the scheme of work, resources and
assignments for this module. We urge you to read it carefully and to keep it at hand when
working through the study material, preparing the assignments, preparing for the examination
and addressing questions to your lecturers.
Please read Tutorial Letter 301 in combination with Tutorial Letter 101 as it gives you an idea of
generally important information when studying at a distance and within a particular College.
In this tutorial letter (101), you will find the assignments and assessment criteria for both
semesters as well as instructions on the preparation and submission of the assignments. This
tutorial letter also provides all the information you need with regard to the prescribed study
material and other resources and how to obtain them. Please study this information carefully
and make sure that you obtain the prescribed material as soon as possible.
