居高不下的辍学率一直是困扰世界各国远程开放教育的痼疾。远程开放教育中的学习者为什么会更容易辍学?辍学的原因究竟有哪些?辍学者在学习过程中哪个阶段最容易倦怠,以至于失去继续学习的动力?在竞争日趋激烈的高等教育市场,远程开放教育院校有没有一些有效的措施来防止学习者辍学,或者在学习者发生辍学后,有没有一些办法能够吸引他们重新回到学习的轨道上来?对这些问题的回答不但关乎个别远程开放教育院校的效益和发展,更关乎开放大学教育公平和扩大参与的理念与实践。鉴于此,在2009年中央广播电视大学国家自然科学基金面上项目"远程开放教育辍学研究"正式获批后,全国电大系统相应成立了多个子课题组,以团队形式对远程教育辍学问题展开大规模研究。历经三年的深入研究和实践,研究团队对电大系统众多辍学者及相关人员进行了问卷调查与访谈,并开展了数据挖掘、质性分析等大量细致的研究工作,先后有一批研究成果问世。无论是撰写项目申报书时的文献研究,还是实施行动研究参考国外文献时,一个名字不断映入我们的视野,那就是英国开放大学的奥蒙德·辛普森(Ormond Simpson)教授。奥蒙德·辛普森教授是国际远程教育领域知名专家,从事远程开放教育理论研究与实践已近40年,尤其在英国开放大学做了大量的学生支持和制度研究工作。他曾任英国开放大学教学指导与学生支持服务中心主任,并在该校教育技术研究所工作多年。此外,他还曾在新西兰的麦西大学(Massey Universi-ty)、新西兰开放技术学院(Open Polytechnic of New Zealand)担任客座访问学者,并曾在中国、美国、巴西、加拿大、哥伦比亚、韩国、南非等众多国家和地区主持过学生支持服务方面的工作坊和研讨会。目前,他作为伦敦大学国际项目访问学者和英国开放大学资深顾问,仍在对远程开放教育领域的支持服务和学生辍学问题进行深入研究。辛普森教授的研究兴趣主要集中在学生支持和保持(student support&retention)、学生保持的成本-效益分析(cost-benefits of student retention)、远程教育中的伦理问题(ethical issues in distance education)、学习动机(learning motivation)、数字化学习和教师发展(e-learning and staff development)。他有两本专著《对远程学习者的支持服务》(Supporting Students in Online Open and Distance Learning)和《网络远程开放教育中的学生保持》(Student Retention in Online Open and Distance Learning),其中第一本专著于2004年在国内翻译出版,在业内影响较大。另外,他还参编过十本学术著作并发表了三十多篇学术论文。其大部分学术研究成果,可在其个人网站(http://www.ormondsimpson.com)上浏览和免费下载。2012年2月,北京广播电视大学赴英国开放大学学习考察团一行15人在英国开放大学进行了三周的学习考察。尽管考察计划中并没有安排辍学问题研究的内容,但是由于笔者对辛普森教授在辍学研究上远见卓识的敬仰,提出希望英方在可能的情况下能够安排笔者与辛普森教授的晤面。英方很痛快地答应了下来,但笔者当时并未抱太大幻想,因为辛普森教授虽已从英国开放大学退休,但依然非常忙碌,经常在世界各地远程开放教育会议上做报告,主持各种讲座并将大量时间和精力花在研究上。然而,让笔者喜出望外的是,英方不但通过电子邮件联系到了辛普森教授,他还答应为整个考察团做一场关于远程开放教育学生保持的专题报告。报告会安排在了考察学习的最后一天,辛普森教授用幽默的语言、翔实的数据、周密的分析把我们引领到了国外尤其是英国开放大学对辍学问题的关注和对学生保持的项目研究中。报告会后,笔者对辛普森教授又进行了单独采访,不但向他介绍了中国学者在远程开放教育辍学研究方面的进展,而且就中国学者在研究过程中遇到的一些问题与他进行交流。从英国开放大学归来后,笔者就远程开放教育辍学问题和辛普森教授通过电子邮件进行了多次沟通。本篇访谈主要从目前国外远程开放教育辍学研究的现状和趋势、辍学原因、辍学时间及规律、降低辍学率和提高保持率的措施等方面出发,诊断远程开放教育高辍学率的病因,并采取有效措施对症下药,最大限度地降低辍学率,造就更多成功的远程开放教育学习者,以期为中国开放大学的建设提供借鉴。 相似文献

During the late 1960s the United Kingdom was one of many countries which faced a potential educational crisis arising from a growing demand for post‐secondary education linked with inadequate resources for its conventional provision. “Distance learning” techniques, providing an alternative form of study based on multi‐media methods outside formal educational systems, have emerged in response to this new demand. Within the sector of higher education the Open University of the United Kingdom is one of the most comprehensive distance learning systems. Many requests have been made to the University for information on distance education and for advice and assistance in establishing similar ventures elsewhere. In response to these developments the University Senate has created recently a Centre for International Co‐operation and Services (CICS). We give below information on the main functions of this Centre within the framework of the Open University activities. 相似文献

The Open University, with over 60 000 students learning at a distance in its undergraduate profile, is the largest institution of its type in the world. With students spread throughout the United Kingdom and with such large numbers, the Open University has been critically aware of the potential depersonalization of the individual student and the possible subordination of the real needs of students to the bureaucratic requirements of the institution. By providing each student with a tutor-counsellor who is responsible for the progress of a group of thirty to forty students from initial registration to graduation, the Open University has sought to create an intermediary support, between the distant institution and the student, who has a responsibility for the student in the institution and has a personal knowledge of the student's general progress. However, since tutor-counsellors are part-time staff and since the University's system is large and complex, it has been necessary to support the part-time staff with up-to-date details of the information the institution holds on file concerning its students. The tutor-counsellor can thus operate in the context of his own personal ‘knowledge’ of the student and the University's institutional ‘knowledge’ of the student. The Open University has therefore created a general data management and file processing system which allows it to assist selectively and efficiently the work of the tutor-counsellors in their support of the individual student. This is a major step in the University's objective of individualizing its support to students. 相似文献

In this contribution, a theoretical and empirical framework based on work carried out at the Open universiteit (Ou) for a new approach towards the design, production and delivery of flexible, interactive learning materials for distance education is presented. In the Research and Development centre of the Ou, a project has concentrated on the innovation of current approaches. This framework can also be considered as an advance organizer to reading the remaining articles from the Open universiteit in this issue of Distance Education. A key feature of the innovation is that during the design phase, course developers have to define ‘models’ of the materials to be developed: a content model, a support model, a student model and the learning path. From a flexibility point of view especially, the ‘student model’ is of importance since it defines the student variables that will be taken into account when developing/ presenting alternative materials (basic content and/or embedded support). A computer‐based system, the ‘Interactive Learning and Course Development Environment (ILCE)’, was developed to support the work of course development teams and tutors on the one hand, and students on the other hand. The development system supports the work of the developers; the delivery system supports the study process of students. The delivery is realised as an on‐line course, on the World Wide Web. Students start working with the ILCE‐system by following an intake procedure. They can make choices in relation to student variables that have been defined in the student model (profession, study intentions, context, etc.). Next, they can ‘on the fly’ generate a course. Rom the large repository of learning materials only those materials are selected and compiled that are in line with the student model of this specific student Furthermore, they can choose to study the materials on screen and/or make prints of the materials. Of course, in printing the materials they lose the interactive and dynamic possibilities of the computer learning environment 相似文献

Four generally accepted definitions of distance education are analysed and from them six components of a comprehensive definition are chosen. The forms of education that are considered to fall within the concept of distance education as outlined are considered from the point of view of choice of medium, institutional type and didactic model. Various forms of education that bear some similarities to distance education but are not to be identified with it are described. The term ‘distance education’ is proposed as the most satisfactory solution to the problem of terminology. The term ‘distance education’ covers the various forms of study at all levels which are not under the continuous, immediate supervision of tutors present with their students in lecture rooms or on the same premises, but which, nevertheless, benefit from the planning, guidance and tuition of a tutorial organisation. (Holmberg,1977:9) Distance education is education which either does not imply the physical presence of the teacher appointed to dispense it in the place where it is received or in which the teacher is present only on occasion or for selected tasks. (Loi 71.556 du 12 juillet 1971) Distance teaching/education (Fernunterricht) is a method of imparting knowledge, skills and attitudes which is rationalised by the application of division of labour and organisational principles as well as by the extensive use of technical media, especially for the purpose of reproducing high quality teaching material which makes it possible to instruct great numbers of students at the same time wherever they live. It is an industrialised form of teaching and learning. (Peters, 1973:206) Distance teaching may be defined as the family of instructional methods in which the teaching behaviours are executed apart from the learning behaviours, including those that in a contiguous situation would be performed in the learner's presence, so that communication between the teacher and the learner must be facilitated by print, electronic, mechanical or other devices.

The paper (developed from one presented at the 1980 Conference of the Association) concerns itself with experience gained by the academic side of the Open University/BBC partnership. It concentrates upon the different roles in which broadcasting can be used and upon some of the ways in which broadcasting has been tackled in the past within an overall multi‐media package. The different styles and approaches which could be made within the Open University Continuing Education division are considered. Within this framework two important threads emerge. One is the need to provide further learning opportunities by the provision of additional educational materials. The second relates to the necessity of subjecting the knowledge claims of television to more rigorous assessment. 相似文献

The author describes the formal structures which have been established to support the process of educational change in Italy. There is a sound legislative base: a series of laws passed since 1973 create both a new model of school and the procedures and organisations designed to facilitate its emergence, including councils at the class and school level. The right and duty of teachers to engage on in‐service education is firmly recognised as an essential component in school development. The European Centre for Education and the Pedagogical Documentation Library are mentioned, but the author dwells at greater length on the Regional Institutes for Educational Research, Experimentation and In‐Service Training (IRRSAE). He provides a detailed explanation of the duties of the IRRSAE and of their organisation and functioning. The IRRSAE are widely regarded as key institutions in educational development in Italy. 相似文献

One of the important events relevant for higher education in Europe which took place in 1979 was the 7th General Assembly of CRE ‐the Standing Conference of Rectors and Vice‐Chancellors of the European Universities (13‐17 August 1979, Helsinki). The present membership of CRE includes 352 universities and institutes of higher education in 23 European countries. The following article, written by Dr. Andris Barblan, Secretary General of CRE, reflects major problems discussed during the General Assembly (Editor's Note: This article is based on the paper presented by Dr. A. Barblan at the Seminar “University Today” which was held on 28 August 1979 in Dubrovnik). For CEPES participation at this conference see page 42 of this Bulletin. 相似文献
