and distance learning

2. Open and distance learning can be
effectively used to support
capability and promote
development, in health as in other
sectors, but will not necessarily do
so.

6. All have used open and distance
learning as a means towards ‘the
expansion of the “capabilities” of
persons to lead the kind of lives they
value - and have reason to value’.
(Armatya Sen)
.
7. Where open and distance learning can
strengthen people’s capability, it can in turn
promote development.
But its track record is mixed
projects have failed
completion rates have been low
we have not applied what we
know about how to make it work
8. Six conditions for success
1 Respond to the needs and circumstances of learners (including their ability to
pay)
2 Devote resources to formative research and evaluation
3 Get the instructional design right
mixed media
face-to-face support
student support
well-designed materials
4 Make sure the logistics work
5 Seek integration
6 Get political support and teach your learners how to pursue it
9. Open and distance learning can be
effectively used to support capability
and promote development but will not
necessarily do so.
Responding to the six conditions will
stack the odds in our favour.
10. Learners and politics: international
courses cost several years income
for the kind of overseas learners for
whom they are designed.
Just what should we be doing here?
