The Nebraska program is modeled after England's Open University. Key questions focus on unique student characteristics and needs which would influence course development.

This group proved to be significantly different from an uninterested group, but quite heterogeneous in age, education, and interests. These results indicate that planners must attend to individual differences much greater than those encountered in typical on-campus settings. (Author)
