| Comment | It angers me enormously that some folk think ODL is a simple pivot.
I did my PGCAP thesis on (uni) ODL and it's a *whole* area unto itself. As someone said to me, as well 'the worry is that everything we think we know about ODL, we learned from folk who want to do it'.
In terms of school teaching I know someone who just bunged kids a load of documents and said 'see you in a week'. At university level the students are semi-revolting because the uni promised them an 'experience' and so now they get mad it's largely just recorded videos. Luckily I've got loads of synchronous stuff (i.e. live lectures/seminars) so they dig me. |
