The iCMA44 issue still exists though which means that submission of this assignment is delayed until either it is fixed or they make Question 1 void. This isn't a massive problem for me or anybody else really, it's just a bit irritating. It doesn't show the OU in a particularly good light though, since as a distance learning provider they heavily rely on IT to administrate their courses.
There was a Project Module briefing on Wednesday. The module S(XP)390 is not part of my Diploma in Physics profile, but in the unlikely (and theoretically possible) event that I will go on further after the Diploma, it will be the very last module of the degree course. I take an interest in these type of things even though its a long way off and not really relevant to me at the moment. It was very similar to the event held last year, except there is a new module chair for the Physics strand and there is now a Biomedical Science option. It was a little bit 'smoke and mirrors' in places. They kept banging on about how well students were supported on the module in general terms, but it got a little bit fuzzy when actually discussing the details of what that 'support' actually involves. It was worth attending though, and it had a good turnout for these type of events. I think it was nudging towards 100 people at times.
