Open Education developing vision and policy 1. The university wishes to use online education to ease students’ transition into academic education at the pre-programme stage. This is possible, for example, using an online transition module designed to ‘brush up’ on any skills or knowledge that may be lacking. 2. A second objective concerns improvements to campus-based education. By running part of a subject online, or including effective third- party open and online teaching materials and ensuring that the contact hours contain high-quality content, flipping the classroom can lead to improvements in the quality of on-campus education. 3. Pilot projects will be carried out, involving open online education (e.g. MOOCs) and preferably interdisciplinary collaboration with strategic partners, e.g. as part of the Leiden-Delft-Erasmus (LDE) alliance. All pilot projects will be closely scrutinised in terms of, for example, quality and scalability before being given the green light. An evaluation of the EUR online learning programme will be carried out in two years’ time, after which more precise choices may be made for the the 2016-2018 period. Xxxxx: ‘The focus of the strategic workshop was very much on the “open” aspect. This is not our only objective, but it did serve as a good ice-breaker within EUR, and certainly got the discussion going.’ The workshops have shown that the professionalisation of lecturers in the field of open and online education is crucial. Lecturers must be aware of the added value of open and online education, have a sound knowledge of what it entails and know how to put it into practice. This professionalisation process does not happen automatically, but needs to be instigated by the institution.
