Arab Open University – Some facts

• Some facts

– NPO

– Supported by AGFUND (Arab Gulf Program for United Nations Development

Organization)

– Seven branches

– Five faculties

• Business Studies

• Computer Studies

• Language studies

• Education studies

• General studies

ODEL vs. digital divide: who wins?

• AOU–Lebanon vs. UKOU students

– Internet accessibility

AOU case: finally

• The internet access barrier hinders ODEL’s

role in promoting social justice at (inter)national

levels.

• One can find it legitimate to think that: to profit from ODEL, one should live on the “right

side” of the digital divide.
