Is anyone doing an online course using WebCT?

That's it really! I start my BA Child and Youth Studies on Monday and it is all online using this program and wondered if anyone else is doing something similar.

I was doing the same course part time last year through the UHI. Unfortunatlry I couldn't keep up with my studies as husband started working away and it just got too stressful. I am planning to go back when things get a bit easier (also have new baby now!) The 2 modules I completed were Intro to child dev, and Personal Effectiveness and study skills. Let me know if you need any books from these modules as I would be happy to lend them to you.

Wallace you are fab! Those are 2 of the modules I will be doing. How many hours a week did it take up to get the work done? I am a bit worried about keeping up TBH!

It really didn't take much time to cover the work on a weekly basis (for 2 modules) - some days I did none, others I did a few hours. The hard bit is when you need to get an essay in. I'm my own worst enemy leaving things til the last minute

I'm sure you'll manage - the ICD module is really fascinating which helps. The PESS one is boring, but quite easy.

Which college are you based at?

I am doing 4 modules Wallace so full time! I dont work but have 2 kids (one at home and one at nursery 1/2 days) They are in bed by 7pm though and I am getting someone to watch them one full day during the week so I can work on it and I am hoping to do some work at the weekends too. The course is being led from Perth College but I will take exams etc at Argyll college in Campbeltown (10 miles from me) as I am 4.5 hours from Perth. I am worried about not managing but if it gets too much I will switch to part time. When do you think you migt re-start? Obviously you are busy ATM!
