BSc Hons Open

[seanied]

I am looking to upgrade to a level 8 Honours degree, i currently have a diploma in electronics which i completed in 94.
I am hoping to get a BSc hons degree with OU and I'm considering the below courses.
T307 Innovation: designing for a sustainable future
T325 Technologies for digital media
T324 Keeping ahead in information and communication technologies.

Has anyone here studied these courses, if so how tough are they. Is there any prep work i could do to prepare for these? The courses do not start until Feb 2010.
Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

they're as tough as any other year 2 and 3 college courses. As regards prep, have a look at the ou website and google the course contents...

If anything, my recent venture back into education suggests that distance learning is even more difficult as it requires that much more discipline and motivation.
However, as long as your commited to what your taking on, then its a good option. All resources available via your laptop. No commuting to college and the flexibility to arrange your study time around your existing circumstances.
