In June I interviewed Otto Peters (97), the founding Rector of the FernUniversität in Hagen. He told the story of how and why he invented the term "distance education". Today the interview was accepted for publication in American Journal of Distance Education. Coming soon, #openaccess...

Thank you to Mark Nichols for a thought provoking keynote about the future of distance education at the ODLAA 50th celebrations!

Happy new year to all... I am glad to announce that my interview with Otto Peters is now published in the American Journal of Distance Education #openaccess FernUniversität, Ada Pellert tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Danke für die Information. Wir werden dabei sein. Vielleicht wäre es hilfreich, wenn Sie klarstellen würden, dass es auf keinen Fall auch um Solidarität mit Palästina/Hamas geht. Bei flüchtigem Lesen der NWZ (nwzonline.de/oldenburg/demo…) könnte dieser Eindruck entstehen.

It was a pleasure to meet Prof Asha Kanwar at the International Conference on Building a Learning Society in Beijing. On the closing panel we discussed the opportunities and challenges for Open Universities in the digital age. hkmu.edu.hk/sol/2024/05/03…

We discussed about the challenges and opportunities for open universities in the digital transformation. Delivering high quality programs at scale is a major competitive advantage.

It was brilliant to spend time with some of my favourite people today!! 🥰 Awesome to catch up with Berrin Cefa, John Bai & Frank Senyo Loglo. Looking forward to seeing Olaf Zawacki-Richter & some other Uni Oldenburg colleagues tomorrow 😀

So nice to meet you here in Oldenburg again, dear Dr Mel Bond MCCT. Over Kaffee und Kuchen, we discussed some future research opportunities.

Today is a big day. Our dear friend and colleague Frank Senyo Loglo submitted his dissertation. Cheers, dear Frank, may your future be a bright and shining one!
