Betty LawrenceLisa Snyder
International Forum for Women in eLearningDec. 1-3, 2010
Open Learning
"[...] both a process which focuses on access to educational opportunities and a philosophy which makes learning more client and student centered." Paine (1989, xi)
Open Learning
"Instructional systems in which many facets of the learning process are under the control of the learner. It attempts to deliver learning opportunities where, when, and how the learner needs them."
from: UNESCO Definitions
"From my perspective, the only legitimate role for new media and technology in education is to increase our capacity to be generous with one another. Because the more open we are, the better education will be."
David Wiley, "Openness as a Catalyst for an
Educational Reformation"
EDUCAUSE Review, vol. 45, no. 4 (July/August 2010): 14–20
Open Learning
Open University
"The open and distance university movement is removing barriers of geography, time and cost while maintaining quality of education. In some countries open and distance education now serves more than one third of the student population and this is growing rapidly."
from: M-2009 World Conference(23rd ICDE World Conference and the 2009 EADTU Annual Conference in Maastricht)

Open SUNY
OPEN SUNY Building on SUNY’s current open and online initiatives, OPEN SUNY has the potential to be America’s most extensive distance learning environment. It will provide students with affordable, innovative, and flexible education in a full range of instructional formats, both online and on site. OPEN SUNY will network students with faculty and peers from across the state and throughout the world through social and emerging technologies and link them to the best in open educational resources. OPEN SUNY will provide an online portal for thousands of people worldwide seeking a foothold in post-secondary education - from soldiers of the 10th Mountain Division in Afghanistan to new immigrants with foreign educational credentials to overseas students who can’t afford in-person American study.
