Chroniques Horizon sur la formation à distance

Logo de l'Agence Régionale de la Formation tout au long de la vie (ARFTLV Poitou-charentes)Du 21 au 25 octobre 2013, les Chroniques Horizon aborderont la formation à distance.
De nombreux organismes comme le CNAM, le CNED, les universités ou les organismes privés, offrent aujourd’hui la possibilité de suivre des formations à distance depuis son domicile ou son lieu de travail. Qu’il s’agisse de préparer un diplôme, un concours, de bénéficier d’une remise à niveau, de se perfectionner dans une discipline, les formations à distance permettent d’apprendre à son rythme, en tenant compte de ses contraintes (horaires et de transport), et selon un programme personnalisé, adapté à ses besoins et à son niveau. Etudiants, demandeurs d’emploi, salariés ou particuliers peuvent ainsi se remettre à niveau ou acquérir de nouvelles connaissances en vue d’une insertion ou d’une réorientation professionnelle. Pour bien choisir sa formation à distance, il faut se poser les mêmes questions que pour des formations plus traditionnelles. Leur financement nécessite également de mener des démarches similaires.

Lundi : se former à son rythme.
Mardi : la formation à distance, pour qui ?
Mercredi : une offre diversifiée.
Jeudi : choisir sa formation à distance.
Vendredi : financer sa formation à distance.

Government plans to overhaul GCSEs and A-levels at the same time will 'wreck' education - Oxford University's head of admissions

http://www.independent.co.uk/independent.co.uk/images/independent_masthead.pngBy Richard Garner. Mike Nicholson told a conference of exam board representatives of 'tragic consequences' of exam reform. Education Secretary Michael’s Gove’s exam reform will “wreck” the English education system, the head of admissions to Oxford University warned yesterday.
Mike Nicholson told a conference in London that reforms to A-levels were “another great example of the Government’s tendency to meddle in things they should probably really leave alone”. More...

The New Giants of Brazilian Higher Education

https://a0.edsurge.com/uploads/package/image/12/half_size_big_RIArticle.jpgBy Patrícia Gomes. It’s been a busy time for the education sector in the Brazilian stock market. In less than a week, two large groups of private universities have filed for initial public offerings, which together could raise as much as R$1.6 billion (US$730 million). But there’s more action than IPOs. This year, three mergers and acquisitions of major education companies also shook up the sector, which is making big bets on online distance learning.
The biggest of the two IPOs is led by Ser Educacional Group, which operates universities in 11 states in the north and northeastern part of the country and has over 100,000 students. The company set the price range at between R$19.50 and R$23.50 a share and aims to raise between R$600.2 million to R$976.5 million (US $275M to $447M). More...

http://enews.ksu.edu.sa/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/UWN.jpgThe Australian. Criticism of foreign students and their academic standards is passé now that they have begun to outperform domestic students, says researcher Alan Olsen. "No more is it acceptable to say that 'They can't speak English, and I can tell just by looking at them'," Olsen told the Australian International Education Conference in Canberra, writes Bernard Lane for The Australian.

MOOCs not a threat to universities – Policy seminar

http://enews.ksu.edu.sa/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/UWN.jpgBy Carmen Paun. Massive open online courses, or MOOCs, are not a threat to bricks-and-mortar universities – as some in Europe fear – a seminar held in Brussels by the Academic Cooperation Association and the European University Association heard. One reason that should reassure universities is the difference between students who study on campus and those who choose to study through MOOCs. More...

Curriculum mechanics gear up to ‘Tune’ higher education machinery

http://enews.ksu.edu.sa/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/UWN.jpgBy Ard Jongsma. As the Africa-European Union Harmonisation and Tuning Pilot initiative draws to a close, the question arises whether the work has been a drop in the ocean or a meaningful contribution to the harmonisation of African higher education. Now that it has been 'tuned', will it actually run better?
The problem, of course, is that nothing really has been 'tuned' yet. Pilots being pilots, they tend to take a sample, play around with it and close again, leaving only the hope that someone else will mainstream the results. Many foreign donors have been criticised for this practice and the European Union is no exception. More...

New book probes funding of higher education in Africa

By Karen MacGregor. The financing of higher education in Africa is about much more than money, according to a new book. Deep issues include lack of capacity to use resources, mismanagement and red tape, huge expansion that sees more funding but spread more thinly across universities, and the generation of alternative income, says the book’s editor Damtew Teferra. More...

Counting (students) on international collaboration

http://enews.ksu.edu.sa/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/UWN.jpgBy Steve Nerlich. Like most countries sending students out to study in other countries, Australia depends on those other countries to confirm where its students go and what they study. We can and do aim to ask our own university students where they went and what they did, after the fact. For example, a recent Australian University International Directors' Forum survey found that over 24,000 Australian university students studied for a time in other countries in 2012 during the course of their Australian degree, with about a third choosing a study destination in Asia. More...
