These Open University/BBC interdisciplinary learning resources provide a lively and wide-ranging introduction to seven subjects in the arts - art history; literature; philosophy; classical studies; history; religious studies; and the history of science. The videos enable students to develop the key skills for effective study: close analysis and critical thinking; evaluation and interpretation of ideas; and coherent and succinct expression in prose.
