Distance learning.

Not all people physically want to go to university, but some people do want to work for a degree. That's where a clever little thing known as "The Open University" comes in. Studying a degree with the open university gives you flexibility, as you can study anywhere you like! Whether it be at home, in the library or a local study center, it allows you to study where you know you work the best. You receive "supported open learning" means that you get:

• support from a tutor or online forum to help with module material, activities and assignments
• student advisers and study facilities in their own region, and
• contact with other students at tutorials, day schools or through online conferencing,online social networks, informal study groups, and events. - The Open University <- check it out!

If you are considering distance learning, you need to weigh up all of your options. For example, you would be committed to learning in your own home, where you make work better. On the other hand, you miss out on working within groups and getting to know different people. It just depends what you know works best for you - YOU are the only person that can decide what you want to do with your future.
