Hi all,

I'm @Ben1204 and have just started Y180 Making Sense of the Arts. I have booked up already to start AA100 Arts Past and Present in February.

I tweet about almost anything from art, photography, travel, the environment, news, history, astronomy, music and fashion, plus lots more. :)

Janet Armstrong - Wed, 28/09/2011 - 22:19

 I'm Janet,

I tend to follow rather than tweet, but I'm @quakerjanet 

I shall be starting L192 Bon Départ, the beginners French course in November. I've done a couple of creative writing courses in the past.

Ronn Andrei - Thu, 16/08/2012 - 21:38

Hi, I'm Ronn and I am pursuing an online degree, it's a relatively new field and a lot of people want to know more about this kind of experience, I tweet a lot about that.

Christopher Wilton - Thu, 08/09/2011 - 23:10

Hi I'm Chris, I'm currently writing my final essay for Philosophy and the Human Situation (A211), my personal twitterfeed is @Cartera357 but I also contribute to the NEW Secular-OU Students Association twitterfeed @SecularOU.

Students supportive of secular values, science education and critical thinking should consider getting involved with us, either through twitter, through our blog (http://www.secular-ou.posterous.com).

I also run the even newer Staffordshire Skeptics blog, which you can follow @StaffsSkeptics (http://www.staffordshireskeptics.posterous.com) so if you're an OU student, interested in skepticism, living in or around Stoke-on-Trent why not get in touch.

Hi

I'm studying part-time towards B62 - BSc (Hons) Computing and IT. So far I've completed T121, T175, M150, MU120 and T226. I'm just coming to the end of T215 and next I'll be studying TT284 (probably). I use Twitter mainly to keep up-to-date with the comedians I like and also tech news. Feel free to tweet but keep it sweet!

I'm @theafternoonsun on twitter: twitter.com/#!/theafternoonsun

I finished my English Literature degree in August, but i'm still very attached to the OU. I would normally be starting a new course around this time of year, so i'm missing that. I imagine I will do more studying with the OU at some point though.

Anyway, feel free to follow me. I don't tweet that much, but when I do it tends to be related to work, literature, art, computer games or any other nonsense. :)

 

Claire Martin - Fri, 16/09/2011 - 16:49

I'm doing the B120 in November, my very first course with the OU, and in fact, first for a number of years!

My twitter is @heartsncraftsuk as I hand make items like jewellery etc, so I'm hoping that studying Business Studies will help me get my own business off the ground!!!!!

 Hi everyone

My name is Kim Pike.  I'm @HollySquirrel on Twitter. 

I finished SK185 in July and am about to start S104 this October! 

I'm hoping to eventually gain the OU BSc Natural Sciences degree. 

I'm not sure which modules I will do thereafter, although I do enjoy Chemistry related subjects and am a very keen novice astronomer. 

Would love to have some twitter study buddies for extra support
