Who is doing the learning?

Abstract

In 2009 Curtin University became the provider of a Bachelor of Education (Primary) through Open Universities Australia. The course started promisingly with 800 enrolments, but over the course of eighteen months has grown exponentially to over five thousand. Offering these courses has been challenging, and those responsible for the building of units with over two thousand students have realized that they, along with the students are on a steep learning curve - hence the question “Who is doing the learning?”
