The Open University is the world’s first successful distance teaching and learning university. Born in Great Britain in the 1960s, the «White Heat of Technology» era, the Open University was founded on the belief that communications technology could bring high quality degree-level learning to people, who had not had the opportunity to attend campus universities.

Nowadays, the Open University, though being the distance teaching and learning university, has its own «physical» government. The University is governed by three statutory bodies; the Council, the Senate and the General Assembly. There are several faculties in the Open University. They include the following ones: Law; Arts; Mathematics, Computing and Technology; Science; Social Sciences; Health and Social Care; Business School; Education and Language Studies, etc.

The OU has been faithful to its mission of openness to methods. Over three decades various new media for teaching and learning have been adopted. Audio-cassettes and later video-cassettes gave students more autonomy. Then in the 1980s, personal computers opened up exciting new possibilities for many courses. Many students became enthusiastic about exploring CD-ROM and web-based materials.

By the mid-nineties the teachers of the University began the massive exploitation, of the Internet that has made the OU the world’s leading e-university. Today more than 180,000 students are interacting with the OU online from home. Each week 25,000 students view their academic records online The Open Library receives more than 2 million page views each year. 110,000 students use the conferencing system. There are 16,000 conferences, of which 2.000 are organized by students themselves. This intensity of usage allows colleagues to do pioneering research on the most effective approaches to online teaching and learning, which gives the OU world leadership in this field.

The Economic and Social Research Council reports Britain towards 2010: «the Changing Business Environment heralds the Open University as offering a «vision for the future», as students and businesses demand a more flexible approach to learning. The open entry philosophy of the OU has meant that wise teaching, comparable in quality with other great universities, has been available to many people. The key to the Open University’s success has been excellence in scholarship, in teaching, in research and, above all, in the systems and methods which help people to learn and to succeed.

Популярные университеты Великобритании: Открытый университет

Открытый университет – это первый в мире успешный университет дистанционного обучения. Открытый в Великобритании в 1960-е годы,  в эпоху «Передовых технологий», Открытый университет был основан на убеждении в том, что коммуникационные технологии могут дать качественное обучение людям, которые не имели возможности посещать университет.

Сейчас у Открытого университета, хоть и является университетом дистанционного обучения, имеет «физическое» управление. Университетом руководят три уставные органы; Совет, Сенат и Генеральная Ассамблея. В Открытом университете есть несколько факультетов. Это: факультет права; искусства; математический факультет, факультет вычислительной техники и технологий; научный факультет; факультет социальных наук; факультет здоровья и социальной поддержки; факультет бизнеса; факультет изучения языков и т. д.

Открытый университет остается верным своей цели открытости к методам. За три десятилетия были введены различные новые средства для обучения и развития. Аудиокассеты и появившиеся позже видеокассеты предоставили студентам больше независимости. Затем в 1980-х годах персональные компьютеры открыли новые удивительные возможности для многих курсов. Многие студенты увлеченно изучали CD-ROM и веб-материалы.

К середине 90-х годов преподаватели университета начали активно пользоваться Интернетом, который сделал Открытый университет ведущим в мире электронным университетом. В настоящее время более 180 000 студентов работают с Открытым университетом онлайн прямо из дома. Каждую неделю 25 000 студентов просматривают свои академические записи в Интернете. Библиотека Открытого университета имеет более 2 миллионов просмотров страниц каждый год. 110 000 студентов используют систему конференц-связи. Здесь есть 16 000 конференций, из которых 2000 организуются самими учениками. Такая активность использования позволяет коллегам проводить новаторские исследования наиболее эффективных подходов к онлайн-обучению, что позволяет быть мировым лидером в этом направлении.

Совет по экономическим и социальным исследованиям сообщает о Британии в 2010 году: «Меняющаяся бизнес-среда представляет Открытый университет как путь к будущему, поскольку студенты и предприятия требуют более гибкого подхода к обучению.

Философия позиции Открытого университета означает, что мудрое обучение, сопоставимое по качеству с другими великими университетами, доступно многим людям. Ключом к успеху Открытого университета было превосходство в стипендиях, преподавании, исследованиях и, прежде всего, в системах и методах, которые помогают людям учиться и преуспеть.
