Open Universities: A British Tradition? - Hardcover
Argues that the notion of an open university is not a recent innovation, but has a long tradition in the 19th and 20th centuries in Britain, and is in fact declining of late. Details selected examples of programs for flexible and distance higher education, paying particular attention to provisions made by the University of London in its 19th-century role as an examining board and later through its external degree system. Also looks at the Royal University of Ireland, St. Andrews in Scotland, Oxford and Cambridge before World War II, and others. Acidic paper. Distributed by Taylor & Francis. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
