The course forum is the central space in this course for you to interact with your fellow students and your tutors. Here you can ask questions or engage in discussions with others.

Your tutor will post information about tutorials here and also provide a quick overview each week of important unit activities. This space will also be used to complete the Application and reflection tasks.

The same discussion forum is used for every Unit.  It is located in the 'Course induction and tools' section.

It is important to check the discussion forum regularly and contribute as often as possible.  To help you with that you can subscribe to the forum by clicking the 'subscribe' button under 'Email subscription' below the forum start page.  This is where you can also change your email preferences to set how frequently you want to receive email notifications of what has been posted in the forum.
