The basic structure of the book was also agreed upon during the meeting: concepts of e-Learning, policies, regulations and funding of e-Learning in lifelong learning, and the status and characteristics of e-Learning for lifelong learning.

  • Flexible Paths to Assessment for OER Learners: a Comparative Study
    JIME http://jime.open.ac.uk/2012/12 Flexible paths to assessment for OER learners: A comparative study Dianne Conrad Athabasca University [email protected] Rory McGreal Athabasca University [email protected] Abstract: This paper highlights the preliminary findings of a one-year research project (2011) that investigated the fit of recognizing prior learning (RPL) practice and related assessment and transfer protocols to projected OER use, especially by the Open Educational Resource University (OERu), a newly-formed consortium of like-minded institutions located worldwide. Across a study that included 31 post secondary institutions from 10 countries, findings indicated both consistencies and inconsistencies in the treatment of RPL. While most institutions reflected the intent of honoring learners' prior learning, achieved informally or non-formally, institutions were bound by internal policy and structure in terms of protocols. The relationship of transfer credit opportunities to engaging with learners in preparing RPL documents for assessment was also varied. Broad disparities in fee information made it difficult to determine what the actual costs of various protocols would be for learners. OERu will continue to search for innovative approaches to providing universal and collaborative education, globally, to non-traditional learners.

Recently, established institutions such as Stanford, Harvard, and MIT have brought attention and new weight to the OER initiative by offering "massive open online courses" (MOOCs) and signing onto collaborative ventures such as Coursera that are designed to provide open access to broad audiences at reduced cost.
