In terms of legal education, much of this has been focused on the USA and Australia, with a limited consideration of legal education in the UK. There has also been a lack of exploration into the factors linked to the mental wellbeing of online distance learning law students in general. This has resulted in notable gaps in our knowledge of the challenges these students may experience, as well as understanding the type of support that meets their needs. This presentation presents data gathered from an empirical study of the mental wellbeing of OU law students. Quantitative results about mental wellbeing from validated questionnaires will be presented, as well as qualitative data from open-ended items about the challenges to students\u2019 mental wellbeing, current sources of support, and students\u2019 recommendations for improving their mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>11.00-11.15\u00a0 \u00a0Coffee\/tea break<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>11.15-11.45\u00a0 <\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Title to be confirmed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>(Dr Troy Cooper, Head of School, FASS, School of Psychology)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>11.45-12.15 <\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Discussion and Questions <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are welcome to attend for all or part of the event, and we will aim to stick to timings to enable you to do that.
