We hope that you are inspired by this module to develop your knowledge and work beyond the suggested tasks, so more references are supplied in the 'Taking it Further' lists that you see throughout the module. Your feedback about the materials is encouraged through on line evaluation and is much appreciated. 

We would also appreciate if you could fill in a short questionnaire before starting - if you have not already done so. The questionnaire will help us make sure the course meets your needs and also assist us in evaluating the effectiveness of the modules.
