Thank you for your videos about the OU study, it is rare to find videos that really explain how the study and modules work. I am really undecided about whether to enrol or not in an history degree (part time) because I can't understand the real amount of workload (seems quite a lot tho) and if it would be compatible with a full time job, especially considering that English is not my first language (scared of assignment and essays:) . Thank you for this and good luck!

[@anovelcuriosity]

I’m glad I could help! 😁 I’d definitely recommend enrolling! The Level 1 and Level 2 modules were really manageable time-wise for me. It was only once I got to Level 3 that I had to spend a lot of time reading outside the course materials for assignments. However, by that point you've already been studying for a few years, so it wasn't too difficult to keep on top of the work! I know that a lot of people who study with the OU also have full-time jobs so it’s definitely possible to do that! Good luck with whatever you choose!

[@RuthieOnTheMobile]

Hi there, I'm a third year at the open University. I'm doing maths, which is a little different. We get text books, and less focus on online, but we still have an online community. I don't get TMA weeks. I will do the unit first, at level 2 its about 80-100 pages for 60 credits, and then work a draft of the TMA questions for that unit. Mainly setting out the maths. Then, when I've finished the book (4 units over 1 month), I go back over my notes for the TMA and flesh it out with words (you get marks good mathematical communication) and as a way of revising the book. This seems to be working for me. One thing I learnt was to try different study methods during year 1 and 2 (level 1), and by your third year you'll have an idea of what works for you. If something isn't working, change it. But above all, enjoy the journey! Six years is a long time, and it's "easier" to beat procrastination if you're enjoying what you are learning.

[@anovelcuriosity]

That’s so interesting! It seems like the maths modules are pretty different. I definitely agree that by my third year I’d got in a good rhythm and knew how to manage my time better!

I am studying at level 1, I also did an access module. You mentioned inbuilt note taking/highlighting? I tend to cut and paste relevant pieces of text to a word document. Is there a simpler way which I have missed? Great video by the way.

[@anovelcuriosity]

To be honest, I made this video over two years ago so I’m not entirely sure what I meant! I think I was referring to downloading the PDFs of the chapters/sources and then using the in-built highlighting tools which are available when I view a PDF. I have a MacBook and I open PDFs using Preview. On that there are options to add notes and highlight words and phrases. It might be different on other computer systems though. However, I did end up just copying and pasting quotes into a word document when I'd decided on my assignment topic - the highlighting was just for my initial read-through of a source/chapter.

[@jaxb]

Hi, thank you for this informative video. I’m considering studying with the OU and wondered if at any point you studied two modules at the same time?

[@anovelcuriosity]

Hi, I studied two modules at the same time in my first two years (four modules in two years). This is considered ‘full-time’ study, which worked out at about 30-40 hours a week. In my experience, the higher the level or stage a module is, the more time you have to spend studying each week. I don’t think I could have studied two ‘Stage 3’ modules at the same time, but I could manage two ‘Stage 1’ or ‘Stage 2’ modules within one year.

[@jaxb]

Thank you for this. I’m considering studying two modules in stage 1 and then one module at a time at a higher stage. Thanks again, really liked your video as found it to be really informative.

Hello! All of the history assignments are typed and submitted as a word document through their online system. I liked to handwrite my notes and planning, because it helped me to get all my thoughts and ideas out on paper, but I did the majority of my drafting and writing directly in word.

[@anovelcuriosity]

Yes, you can see all the weeks of the study planner, so it’s your choice how much you do each week. I always started a few weeks early just in case something came up. It’s very much up to you, as long as you submit the assignments on time.

Hi Holly, I have just started my degree and I was wondering how you are getting on with the Harvard Referencing. I am very worried about this

[@anovelcuriosity]

Hi Lisa, I’ve actually finished my degree now and I know that a lot of people struggled with referencing at first, but don’t get too worried! The OU has a Harvard Referencing Guide, which I think is available on the Library website (if you can’t find it, you can always ask a Librarian or your tutor and I’m sure they could point you in the right direction). This walks you through pretty much every source you could encounter - books, journals, websites, images etc..., and you just need to substitute your source’s information (e.g. author surname, date published…) into their examples. My best advice if you are really struggling is just to ask your tutor or the library. There were a few times I got confused with referencing and my tutors were always really helpful. I hope this helped you a bit! Good luck with your studies! 😁

[@hellomynameisr8062]

Hi what degree did you take? It it more hard then a brick university? What are the word counts for the assignments? How many assignments do you do per week or month?

[@anovelcuriosity]

Hi, I did an Open degree which meant that I could pick from a range of modules. I ended up doing a science module, a creative writing module and four history modules. Firstly, I don’t think I would say it is harder than a brick university. I imagine that the work itself is pretty similar. The biggest difference is that the Open University is very self-driven. You have to completely organise your time yourself. No one is going to remind you that an assignment is due or to read a chapter. However, you can take a lot longer to do an Open University degree - rather than condensing it all into 3/4 years, many OU students do it part-time and spread it out over 6+ years. Another difference is that the grade boundaries are higher at the OU. To get a first you need 85% overall (assignments + exams). In brick universities I think you only need 70% for a first. (70% at the OU will get you a 2:1.) Word counts will vary considerably depending on what module you do. In my modules assignments were between 500-2000 words. End of module assessments can be longer (3000+ words). The frequency of assignments can also vary but I had about one a month per module. (So, if you do two modules at the same time, that is two assignments a month). I hope that helped! If you have any more questions, let me know! :)

[@kylesteyn5379]

Is there a way to meet other students at the OU?

[@anovelcuriosity]

Usually there are some face-to-face tutorials and day schools that you can attend. Some people also host meet-ups as well, but it’s not something I’ve really looked into. I haven't really interacted with many other OU students, but if that is something you want to do, I'm sure there are ways to. Maybe have a look at the OU Student Union page.

[@jadedaelman9292]

You never have any online class with a teacher ? like on zoom or teams ?

[@anovelcuriosity]

There are some in-person and online tutorials, which are classes run by a tutor. However, in the modules I took they were all optional. I went to a few but I didn’t actually find them very helpful. The majority of your study is completely self-directed using the books and the online resources.

[@Alice-ie9zv]

Thanks! PLS could u tell what do the exams to pass consis of?

[@anovelcuriosity]

I assume the exams differ depending on which subjects and modules you study. I did two history exams during my degree and they were essay-based. Both had similar questions to those I’d done in my assignments, such as analysing a source or discussing what caused a certain historical event. If you check on the OU website, you can see which courses have exams. For some modules you do an extended assignment instead.

Please, I heard about free online courses with diploma. Do you have any?? I want history or arquiology. I would like also to have one representation in my country (in Africa). Is it possible?

[@anovelcuriosity]

The Open University does offer some free short courses (although the full degrees do cost money). You can find them all here: www.open.edu/openlearn/free-courses/full-catalogue. I hope that helps!

[@SarahAsYouWish]

I’m in the US, and I know the education system is different. Do you only take one course at a time with Open University? I went to a traditional university here, and we usually took about four courses each semester. It looks like you’re very organized with your studying.

[@anovelcuriosity]

Each of the modules for The Open University lasts about 8/9 months, and the amount of time it takes each week is dependent on how many credits it is. So, for example, the one I’m doing right now is 60 credits, which I think is about 16-18 hours a week. Most of the modules/courses are either 30 or 60 credits, and you can study up to 120 credits a year (I did this in my first two years), so you do around 1-4 modules a year. To get an undergraduate degree you have to do a total of 360 credits, which I’ll have done in 4 years (I did 120 credits in year 1 and year 2, and then 60 credits each in year 3 and year 4). I’m not sure what it’s like in traditional universities in the UK, but I hope that answered your question! 😁

[@cerlena84]

One open University module Lasts one academic year. So part time study is often one module per year and full time is two modules per year. In brick University in England you often study modules per term (basically every 3 months). You can study 3 or four modules each term. There is three terms per academic year. However for both universities part time is 60 credits and full time is 120 credits. So in brick universities the modules are worth less credits, that's why you study more modules than at the open university. I studied at a brick university first but just didn't work out. I find the open uni alot more practical and wish I had just done it the first time round.

[@kekelele636]

There was an increasing trend in the US and worldwide offering bachelor's online. Even the Ivy League universities. As an international, the only thing prevents me is international fees. Not that there are none in my country. And I think The OU remain most affordable for the internationals. Truly, the OU's founder was a great pioneer and has a great vision.

[@AngeARTLIFE]

What’s a library study volunteer? 🤔 How does that work if OU is online?

[@anovelcuriosity]

As well as having an in-person library which any OU student can visit, the OU has a huge online library. This contains digitised copies of almost everything in their physical library plus access to loads of online materials like books, articles, reports etc. The library study volunteer role helps people in prison who are undertaking OU study but don’t have access to online resources. For those students, the OU has to print out everything they need for their course and send physical copies to them. To do their assignments, they might want access to more specialist books and sources so they send a request to the library. Library study volunteers take those requests and search the online library database for possible sources. So, for example, if someone was doing an assignment on the causes of WW1, a library study volunteer would try and find books, articles, and other sources that could help them, submit a request and then the OU would print those materials and send them to the person in prison. I hope that makes sense. If you type ‘Open University Library Study Volunteer’ in Google, lots of stuff comes up if you want to look more into it.

[@AngeARTLIFE]

@@anovelcuriosity ah! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain. 🌻

[@AngeARTLIFE]

@@anovelcuriosity If you have time/energy to answer another question, is OU’s curriculum similar to regular university? I’ve been looking at the BA in English literature, but the modules are strange. At Stellenbosch (offline uni in South Africa) we had 4 philosophy modules a year, linguistics, applied English language studies (AELS), English literature (plus themed tuts like creative writing or love poetry, etc), ancient studies, and so on. We could choose what subjects we wanted to take. On the OU website it looks like they’ve lumped a bunch of subjects under “introduction to humanities” or something similar, and the book lists seem too short and incomplete.

[@anovelcuriosity]

I don’t know what it is like for every subject, but I believe the undergraduate degrees are split into three levels/stages, with each stage being a total of 120 credits. Each 120-credit stage is equivalent to one year at a standard university in the UK, but at the OU you can choose the pace of your study. So, for example, typical university students in the UK study for three/four years to get an undergraduate degree. At the OU, you can spread it over a lot more years, but in the end you are still doing as much work as an in-person uni. 120 credits is considered full-time study (approx. 40 hours per week), 60 credits is part-time (approx. 20 hours per week). Each 60-credit module is run over a full academic year, usually running from October to July (or February to November). I think there are also some modules which are 30 or 90 credits too. In my experience, the Stage 1 modules do tend to be more broad and mix a bunch of subjects together. Stage 2 and 3 are more tailored to your overall degree. I ended up doing an Open degree so I could pick from a range of modules. In my first year, I did two modules. One was an introductory science module which combined biology, chemistry and physics. My other one was an introductory arts and humanities module where I studied history, literature, religious studies, art etc. After that, my modules were a lot more specialised - I did a creative writing module, and then three history modules (Early modern Europe, Empire 1492-1975, and Europe 1914-1989). Although I haven’t attended an in-person uni, I imagine the work itself and the assignments are pretty similar to what you’d get in any other university in the UK. I just had a quick look at one of the Stage 2 modules for the BA in English Literature and there are 18 books on the set books list. If you wanted more information, it might be worth getting in touch with the OU! :)

[@miaxknight]

@@anovelcuriosity oh okay. and are there any other holidays ? do you know what heppens if you, say, miss a month of study cause of personal matters?

[@anovelcuriosity]

I’m pretty sure there were a few other holiday weeks throughout the year. For example, there was a week or two off at Christmas. As the OU is very much about you managing your own time, you can do the study pretty much at your own pace as long as you submit assignments on time. You can see what you are expected to study each week in the study planner, and I always started a couple of weeks early just in case there were weeks when I couldn’t study. Also, I’m pretty sure you can request extensions for assignments due to personal circumstances as long as you let the tutors know in advance of the deadline.

[@miaxknight]

@@anovelcuriosity okay. thanks for replying! another quesition heheh: is communication easy? cuz im afraid if something urgent happens, or i have a question, how will i reach out for support? is it pretty much self-study or can u ask someone questions? because so far (im not enrolled yet) im struggling to get any reply back, not in the live chat, not by requesting a callback... so im worried. also, does your module have exams? oh but you live in England, so it's easy to find a near exam centre right

[@anovelcuriosity]

In terms of communication, for every module you get a tutor who is your main contact. Contact times can vary dependent on your tutor. Some of my tutors responded pretty much straight away to my emails, some took a bit longer. There are other ways to contact the OU - phone, email, live chat - but I’m not sure how quickly they respond because I didn’t really need to contact them during my degree. Most of the study is self-directed. There are course books and online materials, as well as some in-person and online tutorials. The tutorials for my modules were optional but they are good if you have any questions about the study materials. You can also contact your tutor with any questions. Exam wise, it completely depends on the module. A few of my modules didn’t have any exams. They had end of module assessments instead, which were extended assignments that you submitted online. I had exams in two of my modules. For the first one (pre-Covid) I had to go to an exam centre which was about 1 hour away. For the second one (during Covid), my exam was entirely online. I don’t know if they have continued to do online exams, and I’m not sure what international students do, so I’d try and get in touch with the OU to ask them.

You can always just skip to the sections needed for the assignments if you get a little behind! Also, while I didn’t study psychology, I imagine it is the same as the history modules in that there are no entry requirements for the Stage 1/introductory modules. Personally, I found the OU quite supportive. You can contact your tutor if you have a problem. My tutors always responded quite quickly but that might vary.
