Analysis of Major and Curriculum Offerings at Different Open Universities

The Open University of China|China Central Radio & TV University... The major and curriculum offerings of open education are designed to suit society's learning demands, and thus they should be open, high-quality, practical and dynamic. Among these characteristics, high quality is the precondition for openness; practicality and dynamic nature  are the guarantee of high quality. How do we ensure the quality of major programmes and course resources? Relying solely on the strength of radio and TV universities will fall far short. The construction of quality resources depends on extensive cooperation, joint construction and importing.

Keyboarding or Typing is one the first and most vital skills for students to learn for technology literacy.  This skill is the building block for using a computer and one that starts as early KDG if not sooner.  Also, this is a nice skill/unit to teach in using: "centers or blocks", free time, or even summer school.

The Real Education Crisis Is Just Over That Cliff - Commentary - The Chronicle of Higher Education

The Real Education Crisis Is Just Over That Cliff - Commentary - The Chronicle of Higher Education | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it
The various legislative proposals designed to keep student-loan interest rates from doubling in July are now so loaded to the gunwales with ifs, ands, or buts that the whole boat is in danger of sinking. But the rancorous partisan debate is just an election-season show staged for the benefit of the college crowd. The real story is that this country is disinvesting in higher education at an alarming rate—as it has been doing for decades—and we are hurtling into the future unprepared for the economy that awaits us.

The 7th Plymouth Enhanced Learning Conference was my third PELeCON in four years. For me conferences are all about conversations and it’s people that have drawn me back to Plymouth each time. The conference just attracts a nice bunch, with many returnees.  The organiser Steve Wheeler and his colleagues at Plymouth always put on an excellent event and line-up a good calibre of keynote speakers as Catherine highlights.

New OA Journal, Backed by O’Reilly, May Disrupt Academic Publishing — The Digital Shift

New OA Journal, Backed by O’Reilly, May Disrupt Academic Publishing — The Digital Shift | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it
An open access academic publishing company called Peer J Inc. launched today, and its notable co-founders are promising that the company’s business model will revolutionize the field.
The company’s co-founders are Jason Hoyt, formerly the chief scientist and vice president for research and development at Mendeley, and Peter Binfield, until recently the publisher of PLoS One. The duo said they are poised to exploit a looming “wholesale move” toward open access in academic publishing, and they “expect to be at the forefront of a revolution in how academic content is published and distributed.”

In an effort to improve accessibility, Apple created a functionality called ‘Guided Access.’ It’s basically a way for you to take granular control over parts of the iPad that you never could before.

The 33 Digital Skills Every 21st Century Teacher should Have | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it
Every single teacher is concerned about his/ her teaching practices and the skills involved in this process. How many times have you wondered about a better way to teach the same lesson you have delivered to an eariler class? How often have you used technology to engage your students and improve their learning ? These are some recurring questions we keep regurgitating each time our teaching skills are put to the test.
