I'd like to caution the OP against modules. As the number of public functions increases you'll tend to want to organize them in some way, classes do this for you in a natural way.

Even modules organize functions. This only doesn't necessarily implicate that they can only be used with qualification (module name). The Visual Basic Runtime Library is a perfect sample.

Perhaps as an exercise you could list (here) the names of 3 or 4 functions which you might consider putting into a module. What are their names and (if isn't obvious) what do they do?

Functionality similar to the functionality in the Visual Basic Runtime Library. Extended mathematical functions, for example which are used extensively in the context of the project.
