Abstract
Abstract This article is based on a workshop held in NSW, Australia, in conjunction with the Australian Open Learning Information Network and the University of New England. The workshop envisaged possibilities of asynchronous course delivery through a low‐cost, community‐based, electronic network facility. We simulated the user interface for an Online Open University as it can be provided by Pegasus Networks, enabling distance education students to access lectures, interactive tutorials and a knowledge base. We report on an English freshman composition course ‘attended’ online by a Byron Bay student, and an informal journalism course conducted by the Extended Learning Network, Sydney. We show existing links between the NSW network ILANET and Pegasus Networks, and discuss further possibilities of library and database access for online students.
