I quite like the idea of this...learning your degree through a TV programme..brilliant! I'm a right tele addict and I am definitely a visual learner so this would be perfect for me. I can see the TV aspect of this working quite well in general though, especially for fellow visual learners. The radio side of it would also be beneficial but personally its the TV for me.
I also think that this would be a good idea because television and radio are popular forms of media in today's society so a lot of interest would be gained through this style of learning and it would be effective. With it being TV based, you could rewind bits you need to re-hear, where as with f2f learning you can't really stop the whole lecture and ask the tutor to repeat themselves because that could be a bit embarrassing.
What I do really like though is that they do still offer a f2f teaching too. So you can still see your tutors f2f and discuss problems with them properly in depth rather than just communicating over emails etc.
I guess there are positive and negative aspects of everything really when you think about stuff but in my personal opinion there are more positive aspects for this course as technology nowadays is being a major and crucial part of society.
What does everybody else think about this style of distance learning?
