OpenLearn - Death and Medicine module

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Sharif Al-Rousi, Friday, 22 Mar 2013, 16:50

Just completed the hour-long (guide) module on Death and Medicine: Postponement and Promise.

I feel it met the learning objectives, and was good at providing a framework for considering the subject in more depth moving forward. My selection of this module (motivated by desire to explore open learn), was due to the short completion time. I thought that I got a useful amount of thinking done for an hours commitment.

However, I was disappointed that the material wasn't more engaging. The material was only presented as text with a couple of photos. Personally I would have liked some more interactivity with the content. A video would have livened things up for me. It came across very dry as a result - and I felt very passive, much like some of those patients described within the subject matter!
