Abstract
This meeting is about Planning Open Learning generally, but
more specifically it is about planning Open Universities which,
as a habit, use methods of distance education to deliver learning.
Speaking selfishly it could not have come at a better time for
those of us in Penang, who are struggling very hard over many
issues relating to Open Learning that requires consideration, as
we work on establishing a new Open University on this island,
to serve Malaysians. // Looking around we cannot help but recognize that the world
in which Open Distance Learning operates is being redefined
based on a number of factors. Major technological
breakthroughs as well as social developments, many of which
have occurred over the last three decades, are major drivers of
the changing environment. but, others such as increased
demand for learning, trade in educational services, globalization,
economic liberalism have all been cited by one or another
expert, as contributing to that redefinition.
