It is a reflection of the exceptionally high quality of teaching and research at an institution. “Professor Eileen Scanlon, The Institute of Educational Technology at the Open University, is the first Regius Professor in Open Education. Eileen is an internationally recognised luminary in the field of educational technology and public understanding of science with over 37 years of service to the OU.” Related links More on the new Regius Professorships Professor Scanlon's academic profile Publication date 15 Oct, 2015
