Well, Week 1 was a fairly gentle start to what looks as though it will be a very interesting course.
The tutorial last Saturday was without a doubt the best tutorial I have been to so far on the road to PPE, and the first two chapters in the book "What Is Politics, Ch1 "Why Is Politics Important?"and Ch2 "Who Does Politics?" have been pretty well written and easy to follow.
I am already thinking about how to answer the first TMA "What makes something ‘political’?". It is only 1200 words, so by the time you've written the introduction and conclusion, there will only be 950 words or so for the meat of the argument, so it will be all about carefully choosing specific points and examples from the course book and arguing around these points succinctly.
I have actually made a start on Week 2's reading already and Chapter 3 is very interesting, although on the downside the two audios do appear very long at around 40 mins each.
