University President Remarks on Open Learning

Ferdinand von Prondzynski, President of Dublin City University, has a new post on open learning. Von Prondzynski points to iTunes U and wonders what the future role of it may be. While there have been several introductory articles to open education within the past few weeks (such as this introductory one at The Independent), it is interesting to see a university president paying attention. From the post:

Could this be a platform for online accredited education, so that while today you may just be availing of interesting information and knowledge here, tomorrow you may be using this platform to get a BA (or whatever) degree. [sic]
