Hi Joy, please feel free to use any of the skills guidance and searching principles provided in the introductory section of this course to help you find open access material more easily on the web, should you wish to explore further.

Has online education been education’s saviour?
No, I wouldn't go as far as saying that. What it has provided is a fantastic opportunity for students to personalise their learning via a study mode that is flexible and may suit a different set of needs to the traditional on campus learner.
