To someone who has jumped straight in at the deep end with a third
level course the material certainly looks challenging! But as I
already have a degree that was what I wanted. The content starts with
French painting in the mid C19th, Manet etc. and examines the idea of
Modernism. By the end of the course I should have reached contemorary
work from the 80's onwards. If I survive! ;-)
I have given up my job as a Primary school teacher in order to look
after my children and to do this course. As the kids are both at
school now I am looking forward to having time to study. I am full of
admiration for those of you who manage to look after families, go to
work full time and do OU courses.

Something to try when you've finished A105, Lemsy?
What's your original degree in, Graham?
Mupsy
Whatever your problem, stuff a worm in it!
I'm thinking of doing some of the arts courses in a couple of years time,
(just before A105), though I'd prefer to study history, I'm not that
interested in "modern" history which tends to be about WW2 and so forth.
I'd prefer either dark ages or renaissance courses in history, so I'll
probably do the art history courses since they cover the renaissance in
Italy.

You probably would have enjoyed A205 then (Culture & Belief in Europe)
but sadly that course has finished now although I'm told it's being
revamped as a 3rd level course to start in a year or two.

That site was merely the evil propogation of the lemmings, in a vain

PS. Started work on A206 - easy so far....does it get harder after the
introduction paragraph?

Because lemmings aren't clever enough to write the truth....and we
muppets know how cuddly and fluffy we are...

>PS. Started work on A206 - easy so far....does it get harder after the

Obviously the introductory paragraph is very easy because the writers
knew how difficult lemmings would find it to cope with words of more
than one syllable....
It doesn't ever really get difficult, the only part I had any problem
with was David Hulme's "argument from design" which comes up in the
second part of the course. There was a TMA on that subject but
atually working up the notes for the TMA cleared up the confusion.

It's a long way off yet, it's in Studies II so you won't be seeing it
for a while. We had a day-school towards the end of Studies I which
recapped on a lot of what we'd already done and also had some sessions
on what was coming up in the second half of the course. That session
on Hulme was very useful, if a bit confusing at first.
>I'm on the encyclopedie bit at the moment,
That section is a very good grounding on what the rest of the course
is aiming at and the way that the writers were trying to establish
ground rules for what was "enlightened" - it will end up being one of
those sections that you keep going back to.

I enjoyed my foundation year summer school but when I did this course,
I really didn't feel that a summer school was necessary for it. The
day schools that were arranged for us covered stuff very well and were
extremely useful in themselves.

I rather think you mean "lemmings, damn lemmings and furbags"....

We had two day schools and there were also a couple of other trips
organised nationally (but you had to book for those really early).
>can you remember rough dates?
Indeed I can...oh, you mean the day schools? Cor! I thought you were
getting adventurous there!
Far as I can remember, they were something like May and September. If
you have a look on your study calendar, see when it says you should be
starting Studies II and the day school should be just before that.
The second one we had was at the beginning of September as a sort of
revision thing.
>Whatever your problem, it was probably caused by muppets.
Only if the muppet was being threatened by an evil scheming lemming...

Stuff like Hampton Court Palace, the National Gallery.....I don't know
how exciting they were because I didn't go on any of them, mainly
because they get seriously over-subscribed very quickly.
>hihihi....well, I *am* passing up your way in a fortnight.... ;-)
