The first assignment is pretty simple. It's basically describing how you support

Pupils

School

Curriculum

Teachers

You are agiven guidance on word count for each section about 1000 words in total.

The best thing to do is to create a mind map of each area and work from that.

Hi all

Am doing the E111 course too this year after being out of any type of study for (ahem) some decades. I've read some of the E111 threads on this board and I'm really impressed with the support both past and present. Got my first tutorial on 6 october and although this is my first OU course and I juggle time with being a single mum and working I've gone from being quite worried to really looking forward to the next few months

Hope you all enjoy the course. if the threads from previous posts don't answer your questions/queries just ask as many of us will be here doing other courses. I now need to get enrolled for U212 and gt back into the studying mode.

Bluebell,

Good luck with U212. Very Happy

I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think ! There are 4 books altogether. A lot of students found book 3 tedious and not very interesting, but the rest of the course is very informative. The TMAs are manageable. I started at 60% and finished on 80%, without going to a single tutorial ! (too far for me).
