Living with chronic illness makes attending face to face courses problematic, so being able to do a course at home via the internet has given me freedom to do it in my own time and at my own pace, as well as enjoying being part of a group. I can recommend this way of learning to others.

As this was the first U3A course that I have done, I was unsure what to expect. I have been pleasantly surprised by the depth of the course, as well as the resources provided. I have also enjoyed being part of the weekly group discussions.

The course suited my needs because: 1) I could work on it when I was able to do so (I have a disability) and in my own time without any pressure. 2) I can continue to work on this project with no interruptions. 3) So far in the course I have completed my goals. 4) I have written a poem.

Its amazing to me but quite true that I had begun my autobiography about three months ago and without any knowledge of the New Autobiography had worked out that I had to dramatise important events to make them come alive and when I enrolled I expected to find that my approach was all wrong! Thanks for a course that is tailor made to my needs.

From your course info, ideas started to form and I have now completed the contents pages and the outline of my book. I have made a set of Working Notes and have started to write different parts of the book as the mood takes me. The book will be about 70,000 words, and will have an Appendix that will collect all the photographs, tables, lists and memorabilia etc. So you can see, your course has been a great source of inspiration for me and I refer to it daily as I search around for all sources of information

Just thought I would let you know that the content of the course has really got me going. I can't believe I have become so enthusiastic. I'm running around with a journal jotting all sorts of things down. I guess for people who write down a lot of things this isn't unusual, but for me who usually keeps most things inside it's very cathartic. It amazes me in the act of writing how many more things are coming back to me. My son is very proud of me just for starting, he'll probably throw a party when I finish.

The level of e-mail activity which this course generated helped me feel much closer to the other students than I have in most other courses I've taken.

This course was undoubtedly one of the most thought provoking that I have ever taken. While the exercises could be done at multiple levels and had NO right or wrong, if you took the assignments seriously and even streatched your brain around some of the self-discovery work (without actually writing it all out) you should be well on the well to writing biographies and/or autobiographies more comfortably.

Thankyou for all the lessons. I have followed a number of online writing courses and I wanted everyone to know how much I have enjoyed Cate's lessons. They are among the best.

Congratulations for the way you have prepared this course, and for the inclusion of all those additional sources which we now know are available on the internet. I have made several attempts at writing my life story without getting very far and now I have the confidence to get on with it.

I'm really enjoying the course so far. I have all the lessons now and I think that I've enough to occupy me for the rest of my life, for which I thank you. I'll spend the rest of my life amplifying the entries and hopefully will have something worthwhile to leave my kids and grandchildren etc. Thank you.

This was my first course attempted online and I have enjoyed the information that I have learnt and I am looking forward to doing another course. I would also like to thank the course writer Dr John Cowley for the wide variety in the topics.

This course was not easy, however it made one think and re-evaluate opinions and thoughts. For me, it was important to join a tutored course, as this gave more structure to studying. Feedback is important in the learning process. Time taken up by a course which is of interest can be considerable.

It was very interesting to be directed towards research into how the world as a whole is coping or not with global problems such as climate change and pollution.
