Abstract: | The article describes a survey of the attitudes of sixth form students towards an Advanced level course in sociology taught by open learning strategies. The problems of open learning for the 16–19 year age group are highlighted and suggestions made for the use of key questions in performance monitoring which may identify learning difficulties for other open learners in this age group. The findings suggest that younger students entering such open learning programmes may need study methods counselling and additional tutorial support. |
