That's funny, I'm signed up for the Italian one too. I thought it might be useful as we are off to Pompeii later in the year. I've completed a couple of courses before, Childhood in the Digital Age and Teaching Computing. I'm always busy the start of the week, so I'll start getting stuck in on Thursday. I find it best to dedicate the first hour or so of the day to the course while I'm freshest. Like Pittcity says just go at your own pace. The material stays online for you if you start falling behind, so you don't need to complete it in the 6 weeks.
