Models of online & flexible learning - The Ed Techie
An outline of the work done to develop conceptual models and current practice of how higher education institutions provide content, its delivery, and how the learner's work is recognised across the dimensions of openness and digitalisation - a model they have called Open, Online, and Flexible Technology-enhanced Learning (OOFAT). The model addresses learning interventions that are much broader than MOOCs alone.
The six OOFAT types defined were:
OOFAT at the centre
, where
OOFAT is not implemented for one specific purpose, or market,
but as an integral part of the institution’s overall mission
OOFAT for organisational flexibility
, where
OOFAT supports flexibility of higher education
provision
across all aspects of the conceptual model
content
-focused OOFAT
model, where
providers concentrate on the element of content
development and delivery
specifically
access
-focused OOFAT
model, where access to content and support is set as the focus of
OOFAT implementation
OOFAT for a specific purpose
, where
OOFAT implementation is
developed for one very specific
function or market
and not right across the institution
OOFAT for multiple
-projects
, where
very different initiatives are
undertaken by the provider,
experimenting with different aspects of the OOFAT
model and not as part of a unified strategy
