Student and tutor module reviews

A challenging gallop through the 20th century from the origins of WW1 to the fall of communism in Europe. Covering quite diverse aspects of political, military, economic and social history. The pace of the module is relentless. Demanding a high level of application not only on course material provided but wider research of academic material and primary sources. A rewarding opportunity for anyone interested in modern history that helps explain many of the issues of today. I found the guidance and advice from the online tutorials particularly helpful. It's probably worth attending at least two per assignment to gain different perspectives. I am sure it helped me to gain a sought-after distinction. Small margins!

This is a fascinating module for anyone interested in 20th century European history. It covers a lot of ground from the First World War right through to the fall of Communism and it covers the ground quickly. There's a lot of reading and you will need to be prepared to research independent sources, but it was interesting all the way through and I felt that I learned a lot.
