If you can't find a course amongst that lot that doesn't interest and inspire you, there is no hope for you!

for older people they suggest you do the basic maths course,i,d suggest people of a certain age ,stay well away because you,ll come awaymmore confused than when you went on,if theres a hard way to explain 2 plus 2 equals 4 they,ll find it,
I,m 60 and a few years back did one of these maths course during some training, the young lady doing the training was gobsmacked that a 60 yr olds method on long multiplication for example [ milk bottles,borrow one etc ] was about 10 times quicker than hers,and the oldies on the course basically ended up educating her, ive never seen such a long way around the houses to answer a basic question ,it was mind boggling |

Can't see much point in doing courses you are proficient on.
Loads of courses on the Open University list that are not in the slightest academic. Education is free in this country, and like the NHS, it is something the majority, as a result, don't value. |

Bring back Hamlyn all-colour paperbacks. I still have the Mathematics, Astronomy and Military Uniforms titles on my shelf, and they're all brilliant. Wide-ranging, welcoming, and treat the reader like an intelligent adult.
Roughly equivalent to post-doctorate level by current educational standards. |

If only I did not spend most of my spare time gambling
 They sound very interesting, especially if they make subjects more accessible to those who never went to Uni Well posted Jack |

Free as well even better
 Students who go to Uni now, often nearly bankrupt themselves with Student Loans but worth it for those who have the brains But these courses sound just about right for us amateurs |
