Content  OU maths student vs traditional maths student  An OU Level One Maths Module  Web site  Built in digital support  OU Live room  Bringing it all together and testing our model  A prototype example  Obtaining feedback  Giving students a voice  Questions/suggestions

OU maths student vs traditional maths student  Open entry policy  Typically mature students and part time  Independent learning, tutor supported model  Modules are 30 credits (15 ECTs credits)  8 month duration  Intense assessment policy  No specific service maths modules  Lack of specific context relevant material

OU Level One Maths Module  4 level one maths modules  Exploring Mathematics (Gentle Start)  Essential Mathematics I Essential Mathematics I  Essential Mathematics II  Introducing Statistics

OU Live Room  Blackboard Collaborate Blackboard Collaborate

Prototype Virtual Maths Learning Centre  Collate all existing OU maths resources in one place  Add some external links  Create/source context specific resources  OU Live room for workshops and one to one teaching  Maintain the sense of independent learning  Student Forums for feedback  Open Science Lab Open Science Lab

Testing our model  We can record traffic on the web site  Frequency that topics are being accessed  Encourage the use of forums  Qualitative and quantitative data  Seek funding for further development  Happy to report back next year
