The
online learning environment (OLE)
The OLE is like a virtual classroom that the University uses to
deliver the content of the degrees via the Internet. It provides
everything you need to study and to help you manage your learning.
The OLE will allow you to:
-
access your
course materials
-
take part in
discussions with the tutor and other students
-
receive
notices, seminar dates, project support and other
programme-related information
-
ask questions
regarding the administration of the programme
-
seek help for
technical problems that you encounter
Online seminars
All courses for BA History feature a number of online seminars.
Online seminars are regular, formal discussions that will be
moderated by a tutor. As a general rule, you will be expected to
participate in between three and seven online seminars for every
course that you study. The seminars will take place on set dates
and will last for a set amount of time, usually about two weeks. A
notice about the dates for the online seminars will be available
in the OLE. Please make sure you check the notices regularly for
any course-related information.
