It's worked well at the OU, but then there are plenty of people keen to learn and want to exchange ideas and experiences. It almost didn't work when I studied with KLC, but we found coming together at a set time each week really helped. I think numbers involved is a factor too, online forums don't tend to work that well until there's quite a lot of people signed up, plus a few people willing to kick off discussions..VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-63863998718356406672015-10-06T09:33:54.936+01:002015-10-06T09:33:54.936+01:00Getting students to take part in online conversati... Getting students to take part in online conversations is always a problem. I used to deliver courses on the subject of using computers in classrooms and we found it very difficult to get any of the students to join in and have online conversations. Maybe it's a lack of confidence or maybe it's the lack of time Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-30927058268210592912015-10-06T08:19:53.150+01:002015-10-06T08:19:53.150+01:00I would have liked a local buddy too Janet, thank ...I would have liked a local buddy too Janet, thank goodness for blogging buddies to discuss this course. Another option with a local buddy would be to hire a local professional photographer for a day's photoshoot and tuition.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-59520099277756650252015-10-05T20:16:59.201+01:002015-10-05T20:16:59.201+01:00I think the model is one that would work well for ...I think the model is one that would work well for me, but I think I would want to find a local buddy to do the course at the same time as, so that we could swap notes and encourage one another. Great to be able to learn from such an accomplished photographer, particularly one focused on a particular area of interest rather than a more general course.

You have certainly learned a new practical and technical skill, you can apply to all your photography.<br /><br />Looking forward to reading your interview with Clive, and thank you for mentioning my review too.<br /><br />Angela - Garden Tea Cakes and MeAngela M - Garden Tea Cakes and Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10665533361469223445noreply@blogger.com
