I'm in the middle of AA310, Film and Television History.

I've just finished A251 World Archaeology and am signed up to start A219 Exploring the Classical World in October working towards a History degree (just for kicks).

[Mardy]

wow, that's really cool. I'm really impressed.

It is pretty addictive eh? This is my last course and then hopefully I'll get a degree, but after that, i dunno. I'm pretty tempted to go on and get a Master's. It's a huge buzz, learning stuff and that.

[jeanettekaren]

My ultimate aim is to do the MA in Classical History. I already have a degree in Construction Management and a Masters in Fire and Explosion from what was UMIST and Leeds Uni, but fancied doing some humanities courses and just got carried away, lol

a Masters in Fire and Explosion

I'm doing B121 managing in the workplace just now - final essays due in next week.

[indisguise]

How cool does that sound?

[indisguise]

I want to come back to the UK and do a full time MA next year, but can't really afford it.

That's brilliant, well done - isn't it a wonderful feeling when you have finished a course

That sigh of relief before you --- whoops and book yourself on another course

Hope it goes well

I started the Geology course back in 07 but Glastonbury 2007 kind of took over my life and not being that great at hone study and self discipline it fell by the wayside as my Glasto obsession took over my life.

It was a great course but I soon realised that I need to be IN a class if I am going to learn anything. Shame really. I didnt get on with the distance learning thing at all.

But Glasto 2007 was well worth concentrating hard on...was a blinder!

I am really considering trying an OU course. I fancy something like Art History where I can indulge my artistic side without proving that I have no artistic ability whatsoever.

[morduejamie]

I'm at OU at the moment (doing a study abroad for the year). I'm an undergraduate and doing history modules.

Is any one out there also an OU student?

[A Man]

I did my degree in Mathematics with the OU and graduated a couple of years ago. I loved it and will definitely go back to do another one in time.

It's a fantastic institution and I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

[psychology]

I graduated from the OU in 2000 with an open degree. They didn't have as many named degrees when I started so just did the courses that interested me. I've just decided to do a part time masters in Computing (not with the OU) and work have agreed to pay for it, so fingers crossed and hope I can motivate myself!

[Mardy]

It's all great yadda yadda yadda but how the f**k am I going to get this essay on the crusades done by midday tomorrow? AAAAARRRGGHHH

Mind, does anyone else think Pope Urban II should be a hiphop megastar rather than the pontiff who started the crusades. I'm sure he had the bling.
