Hi there. I'm Chloe from East Anglia - wondered if there's anyone else out there starting the same courses as me. I'm not the best forum user - so please feel free to drop me a line to chloestimpson@hotmail.co.uk. I'm both excited and aprehensive about starting with the OU - not sure how I'll manage to juggle my time (with two young kids) but am most worried about disappearing into cyberspace and never finding the info/resources that are available/most useful.....
Hi Chloe, I'm Jenn and I live in Newcastle. I will be starting with the same modules as you but not until the beginning of February. If you want to chat my email is ridleyjenn1981@gmail.com and I'm on Twitter @scattystudent

Hi Chloe, Jenn and Salma!
I'm Sarah and I live near Norwich, Norfolk. Haven't studied in years and wondering how I am going to juggle two teenage kids, job, house, animals. I work part time as a dyslexia tutor and screener and really want to become an Educational Psychologist. Should take me um.... around 8 years to get there!
I am excited but also terrified of the cyberspace thing!! Really great to be in touch. My e mail is sarahjgeorge@btinternet.com. Haven't done twitter yet!
Good luck everyone!
Hi Salma & Sarah. I'll add your email addresses to my contact list. Like you Salma I have no other commitments, I am currently on the sick due to severe problems with my back.
I will also be trying to write a blog about my experience with the OU and this course and how I cope/get on with it.

Hi there everyone!
I just wanted to share this facebook link for a study group for these modules. Maybe if enough people join, it could be a really useful tool for sharing information?

Please feel free to share the link with anyone else studying these modules.
Thanks, Pam.
