Changing Experience of Education, The

Synopsis
What does our education mean to us? How do we remember it in later life? How has it changed over the years? Is it important or not? Ordinary people and education experts answer these and similar questions with a combination of specially recorded opinions and reminiscences, archive film, still photographs and popular music. Education is presented in terms of described experience which is both personal to the individual and shared by many others at the same time. Participants include Professor A H Halsey, Baroness Warnock and Lord Briggs.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
