Hi all, I am fairly new to this forum, so please bare with me. I am now in my 2nd year of the foundation degree and looking into my research dissertation. I am interested in looking into John Bowlby's attachment theory and how this has influenced the key person approach. I have not got an exact question yet, but from previous experiences of different people i am led to believe that this may change anyway at a later date, depending on where my research takes me. I was just looking for any advice, support, ideas and information anyone has to share with regards to this area. Thank you all in advance Vikki

I've just started the OU E215 - am going ok with the activities, but th EYCLO and RLO's keep muddling me up. I came into the E215 course with credits for previous study - but am finding it difficult to get my head around. We've been asked to include an Audit Grid for Assignment 2. As I'm confused by the EYCLO's and RLO's am totally dumbfounded by the Audit grid. Can anyone tell me how to fill out the EYCLO's? Maybe I'm making it too complicated???? xxx
