My original purpose was to find out more of the three main religions, Judaism,Christianity, Islam, and this I did. Along the way I learned the origin and background of these religions. The history of the ancient emergence of myth, rituals etc into religions was quite fascinating.,especially Zoroastrianism. In many ways so similar to the Big Three. Enjoyed it!

Unfortunately, I was overseas on a sudden business trip for most of the course so was unable to contribute to discussions. I have now read the course and am impressed with the quality of research and presentation. Course Leader, Gwen Banks, is now aware of these circumstances and my very high regard for her course.

I am thoroughly enjoying the course. My only regrets are that I feel there is so much to learn and I find it easy to get bogged down and I have to make myself move onto the next unit.

The Course was well structured and comprehensive with detailed charts and illustrations. The inclusion of relevant websites greatly helped further research. I enjoyed doing the course

I enjoyed the course and think that you have done a great job in covering almost every branch of the subject. Your selection of illustrations is good and your own photos are great. Thanks for offering such a good course and I will recommend it to our U3A members anytime. I would also like to suggest that our politicians in Canberra should enrol! I shall look foward to completing the Continents on the Move course in January.

Ian. What a lot of work you have done in assembling a huge amount of data with accompanying explicit diagrams covering a very wide subject. Congratulations. Interested to note that in the USA 56% of consumed energy is wasted and not delivered.

The course exceeded expectations. It was most informative, covered every aspect of every subject. The links to further information were ideal. I cannot speak highly enough of this Course, and would recommend it to everyone who has an interest in this timely subject.

I would like to thank Peter Rose for making The Romans so interesting, amusing and thorough. The course notes are a great start and the use of clicks to websites with further information is just so sensible and useful. I have enjoyed the company of the Discussion Board students and have learned lots from them too. Thank you for providing a facility for those like me who can\\'t undertake other methods of study. But I doubt I would have learned so much in any other way in such a short time. Peter, I have just finished The Etruscan by Mika Waltari and hope to track down The Roman by the same author. I enjoyed the course so much I am thinking of doing it again! There is so much more to learn about The Romans I am sure this would be a good idea. Regards and thanks, Jenny. Thanks to fellow students Jack, Marjorie and Micky too.

This method of study helped me overcome my difficulty with being unable to travel to courses. It made a challenging subject amenable to complete. The course not only facilitated study but was also fun to do with the other other students and a great tutor.

The course was just right. The Internet links were very helpful and the course leader was very helpful and understanding. The group discussion was interesting and I found the Discussion Board a useful way of interacting with the Course Leader.

Found The Romans very interesting, the material sent me off in many directions. Read books related to the subject that I probably would not have approached in the past.

The tutor’s feedback was very useful - he challenged my thinking, and used humour when I wandered outside the discipline of history into speculation. I enjoyed reading other students’ responses.

I found the course immensely interesting. The topics were arranged in a logical order. The course notes contained enough information to start us thinking, and the questions posed challenged us to do our own research and form opinions. I am inspired to do further reading on the Romans.

A wonderful course that provides a full spectrum on the Romans impact on society then and now. My library is part of the area school, it was hard to obtain the books required, inter-library loans can be slow. Library staff are wonderful. However, there is the Internet, a great research tool.
