The Open University (UK)
How does distance learning work at the OU?
Distance learning means that you study on your own, at home or wherever suits you. The Open University's
style of distance learning is called 'supported open learning'.
'Open learning' means you study in your own time. You read course material, work on course activities, and
write assignments.
'Supported' means you have help from a tutor, the student services staff at regional centres, and
centralised areas such as the OU's library.
You can also contact other students through the OU's online conferencing system, tutorials and informal
study groups, and events and clubs organised by the OU's Student Union.
Studying individual courses to earn qualifications
We offer over 580 courses in 12 subject areas.
With each course you take, you earn credit points towards a qualification. You can decide which
qualification to work towards from the start, or you can pick courses that interest you and think about the
qualification to aim for later.
Course materials, computers and the Internet
Most courses use printed paper materials. Many courses also include some interactive materials such as a
CD, DVD or video.
Most students choose to write their assignments using a computer.
Many courses have a web site and an online computer conference. You'll need access to a computer with
Internet to make use of these - we can help many students buy a computer and pay for the cost of
accessing the Internet.
The University and your tutor will need a way to contact you by email.
Home study at The Open University
Most of our students study in their homes at times that suit them.
For most courses, you just need a quiet corner that you can use for activities such as writing assignments or
home experiments on science courses.
You'll often see OU students reading their course materials while travelling. An hour on a train, bus or plane
is a good time to get ahead.
What do you do in a course?
You study the course material from a package of books, videos or other materials we supply for you.
A study guide has the plan for the course
Each course has a study guide explaining what you need to do. You also get a timetable for each week's
activities, deadlines for your assignments and the date of your course exam if there is one.
You receive course materials by post
When your course starts, you'll receive course materials by post. There will always be printed materials, and
sometimes videos, audio tapes, CDs or DVDs, or even an experiment kit for science courses. You will also
usually get access to a website.
These materials are yours to keep.
You'll get the most benefit if you study actively, so it is good practice to treat printed course materials as
workbooks: write notes on them, highlight sections, underline key points, make notes on the pages, add
comments, stick bits in.
Many courses offer 'tasters' - sample materials from courses to help you in deciding
which course to take. They include extracts of course materials, study calendars,
examples of assignment questions and diagnostic tests. Visit the course taster portal for
links to all of the tasters.

You are assigned a tutor
For each course you will have a tutor to help you: someone who is an expert in the subject, and who
appreciates what it is like to study at a distance. We will send you your tutor's name and contact details just
before your course starts.
You complete assignments
Most courses have "tutor-marked assignments" or TMAs: a piece of written work for you to do that you
send to your tutor for comment. The course description will tell you how many assignments the course has.
Some courses have other types of assignments such as project work, 'computer marked assignments'
(multiple choice questions), practical work or experiments or research dissertations.
Completing assignments helps you to consolidate and use what you have learned.
Most assignments are marked and count towards your overall grade for the course.
Most courses have tutorials or residential school
Tutorials are mostly optional and give you a chance to meet your tutor and some fellow students; and to
receive guidance and feedback on your assignments.
Residential or day schools are held at various locations around the UK (or abroad, for language courses).
They may be a required component to pass the course.
You meet other students online and in study groups
Through the online conferencing system, FirstClass, you will join a thriving online community. You can chat
to OU students with interests like yours.
You can also meet other OU students face to face, at tutorials and informal study groups. There are even
clubs, societies and social events organized by our student union, which is the biggest in the UK.
You'll use a computer for many course activities
Not every course requires a computer, but they make a lot of distance learning activities easier. For
example, you can submit your assignments through the FirstClass online system.
Most courses have a website with additional reading materials and links to study resources - we can help
many students buy a computer and pay for the cost of accessing the Internet.
Some of our courses are completely online: the course materials are on a web site, and you'll use a
computer extensively. And, if you're studying a computing course, you'll probably find that using a
computer is a crucial part of what you do.
Some course materials are on TV, video, audio or DVD
Although most of your materials are likely to be printed, many courses also include other media. Watching
and listening makes a change from reading and gives a different perspective on the course.
People who have seen OU programmes on TV are often surprised to find out that many courses don't have
TV programmes at all. You are more likely to receive video cassettes or DVDs.
And, you'll usually have an examination
You'll usually have a traditional examination or some other kind of end-of-course assessment. You will be
given details about the date and venue of your examination or the cut-off date for submitting your end-ofcourse assessment part way through your course.
Exams may seem daunting, but most students find that revising helps them to pull together everything they
have learned. There is also the elation of passing an exam, of getting something that proves to everyone yourself, employers, family and friends - that you can succeed.
When and where do you study?
You do most of your study in your own time, when it works best with your schedule. Most people choose to
study at home. Some persuade their employers to let them study at work.
Is there a schedule for the course?
Each course follows a timetable of activities, deadlines for your assignments and an exam (assuming your
course has one, but most do).
You will receive your timetable in the post, before your course starts.
How many hours each week?
Courses that earn more points take more time and effort to complete. Here's a rough guide to how much
time you should plan to spend:




10-point course: 6 to 8 hours a week for 20 weeks
30-point course: 16 hours a week for 6 months
30-point course: 8 hours a week for 9 months
60-point course: 16 hours a week for 9 months
The Arab Open University
A System of Coordinated Open Learning
The Open Education system adopted by the AOU aims at the creation of a coordinated open learning
process. The main components that erect this process include the following:
1. The Student Learning Pack:
This pack contains the main reading material that has been prepared especially for independent study. In
addition, the pack contains numerous other items that may vary slightly depending on the particular course
requirements. It may contain further reading material in the form of set books, supporting notes, or study
guides. In addition, the pack contains a number of audio visual (AV) aids in the form of audio cassettes,
video tapes, and online-enabling CDs. Some packs may also contain particular software application
packages, enabled on particular CDs. All packs contain a course calendar that serves as gauging milestones
to the progression of study of course material and contents. Copies of Tutor Marked Assignments (TMAs)
comprise another constituent of the Student Pack. Hence, this pack is considered a corner stone amongst
components of the learning process of open education.
2. Tutorial Sessions:
Tutorial sessions are designed to provide a forum of interaction between the tutors and students on one
hand, and the students themselves, on the other. Tutorial sessions are held, on average, for one hour a
week for course carrying the weight of three credit hours. They are run by qualified and well-trained
tutors. In principle, the sessions are supposed to be run as discussion forums treading on the main topics
covered in accordance with set course calendars. Tutors are instructed to utilize these sessions in
innovative ways that help students learn the material more efficiently and more effectively. They are not
intended to serve as straight classroom lecturing forums. Attendance of scheduled tutorial sessions is
viewed to be mandatory by the AOU.
3. Teleconferencing:
The aim of providing students with a teleconferencing facility is twofold. It provides a means of
communication, at a distance, between students and tutors. It also provides a means of communication
amongst student groups, in the hope that it helps to promote a community of learners.
4. Office Hours:
Tutors are required to maintain announced weekly office hours. They are intended to provide a more
informal environment of tutoring. Some Tutors may choose to expand the notion of face-to-face contact to
utilizing Teleconferencing facilities as alternative means of providing contact and communication with their
students.
5. Computer and Multimedia Laboratories:
Acquiring proper computer and Internet skills is a main requirement for all AOU students. As a technologydriven institution, the AOU equips each of its Learning Centers with computer and multimedia lab facilities.
The facilities are made available to students over long hours each day.
6. Courses Online:
Some of the courses have mandatory online components as part of the course study. Other courses have
websites that serve as a supporting aid to facilitating the learning process. The AOU intends to adopt an
effective e-Learning platform which would host the offering of online components for all courses.
7. Lectures via Satellite Links:
Through a project of cooperation with UNESCO, the University has installed satellite links with certain
Branches as a first phase of building a fully dedicated satellite network that would connect the
Headquarters and all Branches, serving as well as a videoconferencing facility. Supporting the transmission
of lectures and seminars constitutes a major objective of erecting this network.
8. Residential Schools:
Some courses may require a more focused and intensive contact over certain portions of course offering.
Such a requirement may be met by invoking the concept of a Residential School. In essence, students
attend classes at a Learning Center for intensive, short periods as required by the course concerned.
9. The Digital Library:
As the AOU fosters an open system of higher education, thereby embodying elements of distance and
distributed education, library needs must be addressed in a compatible manner. Furthermore, the added
complexity of operating via six Branches in different countries, dictate unconventional solutions to meeting
this particular need. It has therefore been postulated early on that Branches should keep a nominal
conventional library supplemented by a “Digital Library”, the resources of which can be accessed by all
students and the University community.
The envisaged structure of a Digital Library may take on three parallel paths:
Global Resource: In this path, the University out sources such a service, and render it available to
all Branches and the University community.
Branch Resource: In this path, a Branch may opt, for instance, to supplement the Global Resource
by an additional resource that is required to satisfy certain local needs.
University Resource: The AOU is developing own library resources, where learning material in its
various forms, including taped lectures, may be accessed on demand. The resource will be centrally
located.
10. Learning Resource Halls:
Learning Resource Halls have been devised by the University to serve essentially as reading halls. However,
learning materials comprising course student packs, in particular, are also made available to students for
examination as they explore various courses of interest.
V.
Coordination and Monitoring the Educational Process
The AOU system has various layers of coordination and monitoring aimed at the assurance of quality
implementation of the learning process.
There are three facets to the issues of coordination and monitoring of the educational process:
1. Learning material design:
The design of course learning materials is the direct responsibility of the Dean of the respective Faculty.
Academic teams form inside and outside the University are usually assigned the tasks of producing the
required learning materials for newly designed courses. These tasks are achieved in accordance with set
specifications and methodologies of implementation.
On the other hand, course material procured from the UKOU, is methodically reviewed in accordance with
General Guidelines of Material Review, adopted by the University for said purpose. The Guidelines attempt
to ensure that learning material, in written and AV forms, adheres to practiced norms of Arab-Islamic
values and convictions.
2. Monitoring the tutorial sessions:
-
-
The tutorial sessions are managed and run by the assigned Tutors. Tutors are qualified with at
least a Master degree. In principle, a tutorial session is assigned 20-25 students.
Tutors form the backbone of the academic tutoring assembly. Some Tutors are qualified at the
Doctoral level.
Then, for each 10 Tutors, a supervising Staff Tutor is assigned. The Staff Tutor is responsible for
ensuring the tutoring and student assessment by the Tutors conforms to University policy in a fair
manner.
Staff Tutors represent the core teams of Faculties. They serve in different roles as faculty
members.
3. Coordination of Course Needs:
The AOU follows a structured system of coordination that helps maintain the needs of course offering and
the required consequent follow-up on course delivery, and the assessment of student achievement in
accordance with established University Policy.
In this regard, program and course coordination is structured in the following manner:
Program Coordinator/Chair:
Each program of study is assigned a Program Coordinator/Chair who serves to coordinate all aspects of
program delivery at the Branch level, including matters of academic advising and intervention to audit
graduation requirements at times near to expected dates of graduation. Program Chairs are named by the
Branch Directors, and discharge their duties and responsibilities in close coordination with the Branch
Directors and respective Deans, and in collaboration with Course Coordinators at the Branch levels.
General Course Coordinator/ Course Chair:
For each course offered, a Course Chair is named by the concerned Dean of the Faculty. Course Chairs may
be drawn from faculty members at the Headquarters, or from those residing at the Branches. Course chairs
are, in particular, responsible for coordinating delivery requirements of courses, including preparations of
Tutor Marked assignments (TMAs), course calendars, and Final Exams. A Staff Tutor may serve as a Course
Chair for more than one course.
Branch Course Coordinator:
Branch Directors name a local coordinator for each course offered. Branch course coordinators discharge
their duties in coordination with the Branch Directors and the Program Chairs at the Branches. They are
essentially responsible for matters related to course delivery at the Branch level. Staff Tutors at the
Branches may be assigned the responsibilities of multiple course coordination.
Capella University

Asynchronous
Modes of Delivery/Interaction: You will interact with faculty through weekly online discussion, and
can contact your instructor via e-mail during the course if needed. Written feedback on assignments
is another way that faculty members interact with learners. Additional opportunities to connect
with faculty occur at residential colloquia, six-day sessions that are part of all Capella doctoral
programs and some master’s programs.Your academic advisor is available by e-mail and phone
throughout your Capella program. Advisors help you plan your program, adjust the plan as needed,
and assist with any other academic matters.
Learning Hours: You can participate in course discussions at any time, day or night, wherever you
have an Internet connection. Not all of your course work requires you to work online—much of your
writing, and project work can be done offline. Most people enter the online courseroom several
times each week to participate in discussion, but there is no set class schedule so you can “attend
class” any time of day.
Time Needed: Typically, Capella learners spend an average of 13 hours per week per course, with
times varying from 5 to 20 hours per course depending on such factors as number of course credit
hours, degree program, pace of reading and typing, and prior knowledge of the subject.
Course Length: Quarters are 10 weeks long with 2- to 3-week breaks between quarters. (Exception:
The MBA program has 12-week quarters and shorter breaks for an accelerated pace.) You can start
your first course at the beginning of any month (every 6 weeks for MBA).
Grades: Capella courses have a mix of graded and non-graded course work designed to help you
gain and demonstrate each of the course competencies. Your instructor reviews all graded
assignments and provides feedback. Your faculty feedback is private communication unless it takes
place in an online class discussion, where the feedback is beneficial to all participants. Your grades
on all case studies, assignments, and discussions are not shared with the rest of the class. You will
receive a final course grade within two weeks after the course ends.
Enrollment: Many Capella programs accept new students each month.

to focus studies, promote interactive exchange among all class participants, and enhance learning
both inside and outside of the classroom.
 All courses build from a basic learning level to a more advanced learning level.
 All textbook readings directly relate to course content and assignments.
 All courses have a maximum of three assignment due dates per week.
- Accelerated, online courses 5.5 weeks long.
Warren National University online:
- For an undergraduate degree, the student must complete at least thirty (30) semester credits at
Warren National University. Graduate students are required to complete twenty-four (24) semester
credits at the master's level or thirty-nine (39) semester credits at the doctoral level at Warren
National University.
- The student will be allowed to graduate by meeting the requirements for the degree in force at the
time of initial enrollment, provided all degree requirements are completed within five (5) years.
Should a student fail to graduate within five years of initial enrollment, he/she can graduate only by
meeting the degree requirements of the currently enforced University catalog.
Everest Online:
- Asynchronous
- Length: Our classes are exactly the same as our ground campus version. You have the same amount
of time to complete your work as if you were in the classroom—except you study when and where
you want.
- Accelerated Learning: Many of our students can finish their degree program quickly because they
can pass proficiency exams in certain courses. Students can also transfer credits from previous
college courses so that they can complete the program in a faster timeframe.
- Interaction: Some students love spending time interacting with the instructor or other students
through online discussion threads or chat rooms. Other students prefer to just log on and get their
assignments. You can decide how active you want to be in each class. It’s up to you.
Indiana Wesleyan University Online:
- Synchronous and Asynchronous
- Time Spent: In most cases you are free to complete the 12 to 15 hours course commitment per
week at your own pace and in the learning style that is best for you.
- Class size: 12-15 students. Maximum class size is 20.
- Attendance: Under emergency circumstances, a student may be allowed one (1) absence in courses
that are five class sessions ("workshops") or fewer in length, or two (2) absences in courses that are
more than five class sessions ("workshops") in length. For online classes, to be counted present, a
-
-
-
student must participate in at least one designated discussion or submit at least one assignment due
during the workshop.
Learning Hours: There is no prescribed date and time for class sessions. Each class session, which we
call a workshop, lasts seven days. Students login throughout those seven days to view their
assignments, participate in discussions and team activities, and submit their assignments. The key
advantage to online learning is the flexibility and convenience of participating in class when it best
suits your schedule.
Interaction: Nearly all class discussions are held asynchronously - that is, without everyone having
to be present at the same time. Discussion comments are posted in a discussion forum, so
classmates can read and respond to those comments whenever it is most convenient to them.
o Lectures, in the traditional sense, are not a significant part of IWU's online learning
programs. Our faculty participates in the class discussions and provides their insights in that
context - an interactive discussion, rather than a sit-and-listen lecture. There is also a
Facilitator's Forum that affords our faculty a venue in which to expand upon or explain
textbook concepts. Other supplements, such as CD-ROMs and virtual tours, are also
frequently used to supplement the textbooks.
o Synchronous: A Blackboard™ feature called the Virtual Classroom, online collaboration tools,
and instant messaging are all available for use by IWUOnline students, and we encourage
their use - particularly for team projects - as a means of developing 21st century
communication skills and experience.
o A wide variety of learning activities are used, in order to give students numerous ways and
opportunities to demonstrate their learning, and the types of activities do vary from program
to program. Of course, all of our online programs have papers and projects, just like those
found in classroom programs. But, there are also virtual tours, video presentations and case
studies, interactive CD-ROM or web-based activities, simulations, and similar learning
activities that are particularly well-suited to the online environment and adult learners.
Online Courseroom: IWU's Blackboard™ learning management system provides students with a
robust "online courseroom" in which to interact with faculty and fellow working professionals on a
broad range of academic issues. While the specific structure of the online courseroom can vary
slightly by degree program, they all share a number of basic features and functions:




Course Material: This section contains the course syllabus, workshop-by-workshop
explanations of all assignments and activities, and information about the faculty member
facilitating the course.
Discussion Forums: In this section students and faculty participate in asynchronous
discussions of key course topics.
Project Teams: Some courses utilize team projects to develop communication, collaboration,
and leadership skills and to allow students to produce comprehensive projects that exceed
the ability of an individual to produce in the timeframe of a single course. The Project Teams
areas provide a user-friendly combination of asynchronous discussion forums, synchronous
live chat interface, whiteboard collaborative software, and file exchange server to facilitate
and coordinate team interaction.
Assignment Manager: This serves as the facilitator's online inbox and outbox, where
students submit their completed assignments and receive them back with feedback and


grading. Each student has access only to his or her own assignments and feedback for
complete privacy.
Gradebook: The online gradebook shows each student the grades he or she has received on
all assignments, so students know where they stand in the course at all times. As with the
Assignment Manager, complete privacy is maintained, so that students can only view their
own grades.
Student Support: Links to the Off-Campus Library Services, Student Services Office, Technical
Support, Student FAQ, and numerous other services are provided in each online courseroom.
