How transferable are the models to other institutional contexts and subject disciplines?
It is important to note that the models described above are not definitive and that there is no ONE model. Each course was adapted as appropriate to the course content, student needs and changing needs of open media professional education. These developments have led to new UG and MA courses which reflect the lessons learned by the team as they developed and adapted the Open media Classes. Coventry are working to examine how these models can transfer to other departments and courses. Other institutions and individuals are also currently taking some of the models an applying them in different contexts.
It is important to note that for the team at Coventry these open models are not aiming to become the 'norm' but are part of an ongoing investigation into how HE might respond to continuing political, economic and social changes and challenges. Whilst others could adopt elements of these models they have not been presented to the wider community as a single solution - they have been as much a part of the process and not simply a product.
