Online learning with Open Colleges has been a wonderful experience. The impact of Covid-19 made the choice easy but there were frustrations along the way. Studying alone is sometimes ideal but there is nothing better than bouncing off ideas with fellow students. Unfortunately, finding a study buddy, or buddies, is frought with difficulties - studying at the same level and intensity; studying at the same time; connecting with people you intrinsically like or dislike. These reasons can erode your enthusiasm and connectiveness to the study. It is an enormous challenge on top of the modules themselves. In part, students begin the course in a staggered format, which leads to a level of non- conformity. Perhaps the College could connect students at the beginning, like an online class, so as students can connect and find friends to connect with. Otherwise, finding a study buddy is too haphazard. The content of the course was definitely comprehensive. Connecting with student support was simple and all were wonderfully helpful, as were the sssessors.
