E123 Advice On Taking Course


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone

Left school in the days when staying on to get qualifications was offered to the ones most likely to achieve, so I left at 15 without any. Four years ago I was lucky to get a job as an e.t.a. and decided to have ago at attempting the nvq 3 early years course. I completed the course but have to admit I found it difficult and often gave far more then I needed to but didn’t know how to give just the information needed, and I’m also an older mum of three boys and work 25 hours a week. I would really like to do an Open University e123 early years course but I am wary of taking on something that is going to be very difficult to fit into work and a demanding family life. Can anyone offer any advice please or share their experiences.

thanks

I have taken several courses with the Open University E123 being one of them. Have you looked on the OU's website? They have the course details and a sample calendar of assignment dates and a sample assigment. You have to do three tutor marked assingments and a project. I didnt find it too difficult but I had too keep on top of fitting my studying in aand doing the assingments -I often leave things until the last moment. I.ve just been looking there now as I had to give up one of my courses and am now thinking of returning to it.

just adding my 'go for it' thoughts :o

I am probably classed as an OU addict!

I started out doing E123 and went on to complete the Foundation Degree in Early Years

The OU then added a new BA degree (with or without honours) I am currently doing KE312 and if I pass the exam in October I will have a BA. One more course next year and then I get the HOns bit - fingers crossed.

 

When I started E123 I hadn't written an essay for donkeys years and was a little apprehensive to say the least but I have done OK and if i can do it then anyone can!!

 

Good luck xD
