Abstract

This teaching material proposes a practical analytical exercise for students of Civil Law, specifically those enrolled in courses related to contract law and new technologies. By examining a commercial website in detail, students are required to identify and assess compliance with the information obligations established by Spanish Act 34/2002, of 11 July, on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce. The exercise is structured around two main regulatory areas: pre-contractual information required prior to the conclusion of an electronic contract, and the confirmation requirements applicable once a contract has been concluded. The methodology adopted is problem-based learning, fostering critical thinking and direct application of the law to real-world digital environments.
