The Obafemi Awolowo University’s Center for

Distance Learning (OAUCDL) has matriculated

its pioneer set for the Online Distance

Learning Programme.

During his speech, the Vice Chancellor of

Obafemi Awolowo University, Professor

Bamitale Omole, said: “you have the singular

honor of being the first set of students in our

eLearning programme, the first of its type in

Nigeria. I congratulate you on being pioneers

of the eLearning revolution in the country.

I want to assure you that your distant

learning mode of admission does not in any

way imply inferiority in status, compared to

our conventional students, either in terms of

lecture delivery or the certificates you receive

at the end of your programmes.

Our university guards jealously the integrity

of its degrees and diplomas whether

obtained in the conventional or distance

learning mode. Hence your various curricula

have gone through the usual high standards

of excellence of the University Senate for

which Obafemi Awolowo University is well

known.”

The Center for Distance Learning Director,

Professor

Bode Asubiojo, speaking also at the

ceremony said:

“This development is the first of its kind in

Nigeria and we are pleased with it. We have

replicated the classroom experience on a

tablet device for students. For the first time,

students can receive lectures, submit

assignments, participate in forums, take

quizzes, and even rewind their lecturers, all

from the comfort of their homes, offices or

wherever they may be in Nigeria or abroad.”
