Advantages: Far too many to mention Disadvantages: Too few to worry about
...to improve my writing skills, so I attempted to research my options. I tried Learn Direct, which wasn’t very helpful, and eventually found myself on the UCAS website, checking out the University Courses. Of course, there were the typical English degree courses available, along with all manner of Journalism courses, none of which particularly caught my fancy, but eventually I found a degree course which I had never, even in my wildest dreams, thought could have existed. Better still, this degree course was available at a University under fifteen miles from my home.
That’s right… This was a degree in Creative Writing.
As soon as I saw that title I knew that whatever happened I had to take this course. It could have been made especially for me. This was during the first week in August, the new University year began in September...

Advantages: Excellent breadth - fascinating summer school Disadvantages: Can't think of any at all
...T102 is the Open University's foundation level (Level 1) technology course: Living With Technology. It is by far the broadest course I have taken with the Open University - it covers Design, Heat, Electricity, Engineering, Biology, Chemistry and a host of other disciplines. Obviously this means that no one subject is covered in great depth, but it does give you a brilliant 'taster' of each topic and can help you decide which courses might interest you next.
The summer school was superb! Imagine cramming all the lab and field work you would do in a year at a conventional university into one action-packed week! Brilliant! Anyone who doesn't enjoy the T102 summer school needs a checkup from the neckup.
Well done, Open University! A superb course.
Don't just read this - register!...

They are my 9th pair of earphones I had lately. Have to admit that they are the best I have ever had in my life. Obviously you can find better but not for that price range or design.
