Opening Up The Open University – last chance to register

Wednesday, October 27th, 2010

There are still a handful of places available at next week’s workshop Opening Up The Open University workshop. For more details see here

There will be three plenary sessions – Open to people and places; Open to methods; and Open to ideas – reflecting the University’s mission, as set out by Lord Crowther in 1969.

Subjects to be addressed include the development of technology and pedagogy, the success of the University in widening participation and the role of the BBC. There will also be a contribution from the University’s Oral History Project.

A report of the event will be available on this blog next Thursday 4 November and we hope to explore here some of the discussions that take place in greater depth subsequently.
