Completed EMA - hooray!

Just completed and uploaded the final version of my ECA for T175 - and I made sure that I did it a few days before the deadline to avoid that last minute mad rush that will no doubt make OU's servers explode!

I was going to write a review for T175, but since this (I think) its last presentation before being merged with the M150 module, it won't be of any use to anyone.

Just got to wait for 3-4 months for the final result now!

First draft submitted for T175 EMA

As per advice given in several places, I've just submitted a first draft of my EMA for T175.

I haven't finished all of the questions, or thoroughly checked my work so far, but I think that it would be enough to gain the minimum EMA mark required (40%). I've done this to ensure that there is no chance of failing the whole module because of leaving my submission too late, problems with a busy OU submissions system, or any other issues. I wouldn't relish having to do (and pay for) the whole module all over again!

T175 ECA - Q2 Completed

Just completed the web page required for Q2 concerning information about VPNs and Private Networks. This took quite some time! I'm fairly happy with what I have for it though.

Progress in the T175 ECA

I've completed Q1 and Q4 of the ECA (End of Course Assessment) for T175.


I thought I'd be a little bit clever and do Q4 first, because it relates the last area studied in the cource material (eGovernment) - the idea being that I would remember a lot of it and not have to re-read a lot of stuff.

...Wrong!

It made little difference really, I still had to re-read a lot of stuff. But I'm glad that Q4 is done, because I think I'll enjoy answering the others more, being a little more interested in the subject areas.

Nice Easter Weekend (started ECA now)

What lovely warm weather for us in the south of England over the long Easter weekend! Perfect for lots of doubles tennis (and as a result picking up a few more hand/wrist/arm/side strains and minor injuries).

I've just tentatively started work on the T175 ECA. Surprisingly difficult to resume study after a break of 4 or 5 days - but the seal is broken now, and it should be easier tomorrow evening.

T175 TMA04 complete

Just completed and submitted TMA 04 for Block 4 of T175. It took a long time in the end - I've an on/off flu-ey type state of health for the last few weeks, and it hasn't gone away yet. It's ripping through my place of work - we must all have suppressed immune systems due to living to cleanly!

Almost finished Block 4, submitted CMA43

Just a few more subsections of Block 4 Part 3 to go. I've completed and now submitted CMA43. One more question in TMA04 to start (I think) and after I've completed that, I can start building up some enthusiasm for tackling the EMA!
