The OU is bringing into this project the web-based course H809 ‘Practice Based Research in Educational Technology’ to be run as a free and open pilot course within this project in a modified version to fit with the needs of the academic and enterprise partners and networks involved in the project. The OU would lead WP3 and WP6 and will promote the course to its usual student population and within its associated networks. The OU would also co-lead WP7 on Quality Assurance.
