Centre for Open Learning of Mathematics, Science, Computing and Technology

The centre will build on the Open University’s experience and innovatory work in open learning in the study of mathematics, science, computing and technology. The core objective is to improve the learning experience of students who have limited opportunity for direct face to face interaction with teachers. Although the potential development agenda is broad, there will be an initial focus on assessment and e-learning. The Centre will comprise an academic community of ‘teaching fellows’ who will refine their skills through action learning based on the OU’s programmes. These fellows will be drawn from the OU academic staff and will occupy seconded roles temporarily.
