OPEN UNIVERSITY CONSORTIUM OF
BRITISH COLUMBIA (OUCBC)

...........
Date....
.eptember 19 198.
.
On September 7, 1984, the Minister of Universities, Science
and Communications announced the formation of the Open University
Consortium of British Columbia (OUCBC). The Consortium will
facilitate distance education course and program delivery through-
out British Columbia using distance education courses from all
three
_universities, the Open Learning Institute and the Knowledge
Nëtwor]TôfthëWt_. ABoardöfDirectors has been etlished
consisting of the Vice-Presidents, Academic and a distance
learning officer (in SFU's case -- Dr. Cohn Yerbury) from each
university and similar officers from O.L.I. and K.N.O.W.
Interim Board Chairman is Andy Soles, Deputy Minister of the
Universities Ministry.
A major goal of this Consortium is to establish better
collaboration among member institutions in tie provision of
• ?
distance learning opportunities for British Columbians. Its
Board will advise Universities Council on the disbursement of
currently existing, specially earmarked funds for course develop-
ment and delivery.
Another feature of the Consortium is the offering of a new
degree program by the Open Learning Institute, a Bachelor of Arts,
specializing in arts, science or administrative studies. Its
distinctiveness is that admission is open to all residents of B.C.,
18 years of age or more; distance course credits from any insti-
tution may be transferable into the O.L.I degree; the degree has
only minimal structural requirements in that 30 of the final 60
credit hours must come from Consortium member institutions. An
Academic Council is to be formed to advise the Consortium with
regard to policies and procedures governing this new degree. It
will consist of 4 academics from each of the universities,
nominated by the chairman of each university's senate.

Literature and Composition I

thorough review of basic grammar, punctuation, diction, and writ-
ing mechanics; instruction in the composing of critical essays; and
all introduction to modern short stories and novels. The course
does not attempt toprovide a historical or chronological overview
of fiction, but instead presents stories and novels written during the
past hundred years to demonstrate the characteristics of fiction in
general. Drama and poetry are the subjects of ENGL 101 Literature
and Composition II.
Given its double focus on literature and composition, the value of
the course is undeniable. Success here means not onl
y
that you
qualify for further post-secondary courses, but also that you will
have improved your reading and writing skills, and that
y

have read some of the more interesting fictional works. This course
satisfies half of the first-year degree requirements in English at the
Open Learning Institute.

Composition and Native Indian Literature I
ENGL 102 provides a review of English grammar, instruction in

essays, speeches, and excerpts from autobiographies, travel diaries
and letters. These literary materials cover the period from initial
contact with Europeans to the present. Some fiction and literary
criticism by non-Native writers are included for comparative pur-
poses. Reular journal writing is a core element of this course. This
course satisfies half of the first-year degree requirements in English
at the Open Learning Institute.

Composition and Native Indian Literature II
Concentrating on literature written in English
by
Native Indian
writers, this course provides an introduction to three major genres
of literature: novels, plays and poetry. You will read short and long
novels, one-act and full-length plays, and a wide range of poetry.
Although the course includes a great variety of Indian literature
(and some non-Native literature for comparative purposes), it is
possible to say that through it all runs one theme: surviving change.
Prerequisites
Since this course is designed to follow English 102, successful com-
pletion of English 102 is desirable. You should, however, be able to
handle the material if you have successfully completed another Eng-
lish course for the first half of first-year university.

Introduction to Poetry
This is an introductory course; it does not attempt to survey the
whole range of English poetry, nor does it discuss any one poet in
depth. Its aim is to encourage the student to read more poetry and
to read it with greater perception and enjoyment. It should improve
the student's skills in critical reading and in analytical discussion.
The lectures, the assignments and the examination have this central
purpose, and the Course Anthology, too, represents a selection of
those poems we feel are most likely to appeal to a beginner in the
study of poetry. The course examines a selection of 20th century
poetry from Canada, Britain and the United States, as well as several
earlier poems.

Principles of Microeconomics
This course introduces the principles of economics, demonstrates
how these principles apply to current Canadian economic problems,
and provides practice in economic analysis. It aims to provide you
with an understanding and appreciation of the foundation upon
which our economy rests. The coursework focusses on individual
economic units: the person, the household, the firm and the indus-
try within our economic system. How is wealth produced, distrib-
uted and consumed at this "microeconomic" level? How do these
units interact with each other? Are they influenced by governments?
The course examines the role and impact of the large and powerful
corporations as well as the not-so-powerful businesses, including
the family farm.

between consumption, investment, governments, and the trade sec-
tor. Data on prices, interest rates, employment and exchange rates
are studied in order to understand how they are established and
how they relate to one another. Considerable attention is given to
theories about inflation, unemployment, wage and price controls,
trade imbalances, government deficits, devaluation, and other pub-
lic policy issues.

Modern Canadian Fiction
Like all literature courses, this course aims to make you at home
among good writers and their writing; in particular it is meant to
encourage a lifetime of enjoying Canadian fiction and criticism. By
exploring eight novels and about twenty short stories published
between 1920 and the present, the course acquaints you with major
Canadian authors, the record of Canadian life that their works have
laid down, their penetrations of a wider human experience, and the
questions of literary judgement that the
y
raise, notably the question
of realism. Hugh MacLennan, Gabrielle Roy, Margaret Laurence
and Mordecai Richler are among these authors, and their works
raise discussion not only of writing itself but also of such Canadian
concerns as regionalism, mythology and identity, and multicultural-
ism.
You will learn to recognize the stylistic fashions that distinguish
the periods of Canadian writing since the 1920s. Your abilit
y
to
reflect and comment interestingly on a variety of fiction will be
further enhanced by the course work in reading, hearing and writ-
ing literary critiques.

Modern American Fiction
It seems American writers struggle to provide a realistic and even
documentary
record of the American scene,and yet at the same time
following writers are so exciting: F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hem-
ingway, William Faulkner, John Steinbeck, Jack Kerouac, Donald
Barthelme, Vladimir Nabokov and Tom Wolfe.
This course, which covers fiction from 1920 to the present,
focusses on a representative work by each writer. Although there's a
world of difference between, say, Kerouac's wide open road and
Donald Bartheline's elegantly fractured New York, you will learn to
evaluate each work in its social and artistic context; the intrinsic
pleasure each text provides is of course the bonus in what is one of
the richest periods in world literature.

Introduction to Human Geography I: People and the Environ-
ment
In this course you will look at the effect of the environment on
people and, more significantly, people's modification of the environ-
ment. Since the complex interrelationship between people and the
environment is a central concern of the human geographer, the
development of present day views on this relationship is traced.
Both determinist and possibilist views are discussed. You will study
such subjects as resource exploitation, population growth and the
impact of human activities on the environment. As you study the
subject areas you will also develop a range of cartographic and
geographic research skills.

Regional Geography of Canada I
This is the first of two courses that deal with aspects of the physical,
human and economic geography of Canada in a regional context.
The methodology of regionalization is discussed and illustrated by
dividing Canada into six regions: the Atlantic Provinces, the Great
Lakes—St. Lawrence Lowlands, the Canadian Shield, the Interior
Plains, the Cordillera and the North. The first two regions are the
focus of this course and the latter four regions are examined in detail
in GEOG 471.
Population distribution patterns across Canada are investigated
and the Atlantic Provinces and Great Lakes—St. Lawrence Lowlands
are studied in detail to illustrate principles of geograph y
and to
develop certain geographical themes, such as dispersion and frag-
mentation in the Atlantic Provices, concentration of industry in
southern Ontario and areal spread of the French-Canadian popula-
tion.
The aim of this course is to give you an understanding of the
similarities and differences between regions across Canada and to
develop your skills in recognizing and relating distribution patterns
of the phenomena that concern geographers. You are encouraged to
take a geographical viewpoint in examining certain social and eco-
nomic problems in Canada. The methodology and philosophy of
geography, based on Canadian examples, are the concerns of this
course, not simply a collection of facts about Canada.

Social Development of Canada
HIST 420 traces the emergence of an urban, industrial Canada as a
cultural and demographic phenomenon. The first section of this
survev course explores the nature of the colonial British and French
Canadian societies during the pre-modern era, specifically before
major railway construction heralded the industrialization of British
North America. The second section examines a much shorter span
of events, the years between 1850 and 1920 during which the
nation fully entered the urban, industrial age.
The course pursues three main currents of social history: the
impact of economic change upon social structures and institutions;
the changing character of the Canadian population over time; and
the impact of migration on the receiving culture.
Prerequisites
If you have taken an introductor
y course in Canadian history, you
will doubtless be at an advantage in HIST 420, but there are no
prerequisites for the course.

Introduction to Cell Biology
This course covers basic properties of cells and cell organelles. It
also examines properties of differentiated cell systems and tissues.
The principal aim of the course is to equip
y ou with a basic know-
ledge of the structural and functional properties of cells. From this
fundamental perspective,
y ou are introduced to important scientific
literature on the subject and you are shown how to critically exam-
ine data and interpretations presented by researchers. The course is
designed to provide a foundation for those of you who plan to

Introduction to Community Ecology
As an introduction to the fundamental principles of the science of
ecology, this course will give you a basic understanding of ecos y s-
tems and communities. The major topics discussed include histori-
cal development, plant formations of the world, biotic zones of
B.C., community energetics, aquatic ecosystems, biogeography,
animal geography and human ecolog
y . Also essential are some
aspects of pollution and environmental health. Note that the
approach of the course is scientific rather than sociological.
The course aims to help
y ou gain insights into the scope and
dynamics of ecolog
y
and serves as a framework upon which more
information will be given in a subsequent course, BISC 451.

Biology and the Human Species
--Thiscourse-is-designed-to-introduce-you-to-biological-principles-
applicable to many contemporary problems of human well-being
and long-term survival. Beginning with the concept of biological
systems, the course proceeds to relate structure to function at the
cellular level and at the level of organ systems and processes in
higher plants and animals. The course continues with an investiga-
tion of the mechanism in heredity, development and behavior
which provides the physical basis for understanding variation and
adaptation of organisms. Finally, the subject of natural diversity of
plants and animals is approached through the principles of evolu-
tionary ecology, social behavior, populations, and geographic distri-
bution. In the final units of the course, some problems facing
human communities are explored.
The aim of this course is to provide those of
y
ou who do not
intend to major in science with a scientific perspective within which
any problem connected with the well-being and long-term survival
of the human species may be examined criticall y
and researched
further
by
use of the appropriate literature. If you plan to proceed
to more advanced courses in biology,

ou should take BISC 110

The Religious Quest
An intensive study of religious aspiration around the world, this
thirty-two-week course looks at specific forms of religious expres-
sion and practice, confining the discussion to certain aspects of
certain faiths. The central objective is to explore the theme "relig-
ious quest" in the histor y
and religions of the world. Three aspects
of the religious quest are especiall
y
studied: first, the condition from
which the religion emerges; second, the goal or achievement of the
quest itself; third, the means taken b
y
the quester to reach it. The
religions chosen for stud
y
are those of the majorit
y
of humankind
and are living traditions in contemporary times. The' are: Hindu-
ism, Buddhism, religions of China and Japan, Judaism, Christianity,
Islam, and several African primal religions. Most of these are dis-
cussed in a half-hour television documentar
y
from the eight-part
series that accompanies the
course.*
A final section deals with alter-
natives to religion such as Marxism and scientific humanism. The
course is interdisciplinar y

Conflict and Stability in the Development of Modern Europe
1870-1970
Much of today's global politics, diplomac
y and economics can only
be explained with reference to the histor
y
of modern Europe: the
hundred years of rapid change that produced not only catastrophic
clashes but also unexpected harmonies. In this course, the century
1870-1970 is studied as three historical periods, the first ending in
1918 and the second in 1939. Within each, the phenomena of
stability and conflict are explored through four main topic areas:
Ideas
International competition and European balance
Social conflict and social integration
Technology, communications and weaponry
Prerequisites

Greece 478-336 BC
This course is a stud y
of Greek civilization from the end of the
Persian war to the rise of Macedon. It centres on Athens during the
age that produced the most germinal ideas and legends of pre-
Christian western culture, including that of direct democracy.
The 'ears 478 to 336 spanned the lives of the classic world's
greatest historians, its greatest dramatists, its greatest orators. The
immortal sculptors Phidias and Praxiteles lived then, as did the
greatest thinkers of Greece: Anaxagoras, Democritus, Socrates,
Plato, Aristotle. Athens was the centre of Hellenic culture. The
purpose of this course is to examine the life of the Athenian polis as
the ancient Greeks perfected it for their time, thereb y shaping our
own time.
Pacing
The course is designed for completion in twenty-four w'ceks, during
which the Knowledge Network airs seven half-hour television pro-
grams on course-related topics. An alternative study and broadcast
schedule enables students to complete the course in fourteen weeks.
In the recommended schedule, two of the programs will be fol-
lowed by a half-hour live broadcast during
which

Management and Motivation I
This is the first part of an eight-month course in management and
motivation. The aim of this course is to describe human motivation
in the workplace and explain how it can be managed so as to con-
tribute to productivity and job satisfaction. It introduces the psy-
chological theory of reinforcement, using examples of everyday
behavior, then shows how this theor y
can be applied in organiza-
tions. In this course,
y ou Nvill
learn how to analyse situations to
determine the effect of extrinsic motivation on an employee's behav-
ior and how to manipulate external factors in a job situation in a
way that will benefit both the emplo
y
ee and the manager. On com-

Introduction to Financial Accounting
ADMN 231 is designed to provide financial literacy for managers.
This involves knowing enough about present accounting practices
to be effective in selecting, from the available financial data, that
which is relevant to the purpose at hand and using it appropriately
in the decision-making process, The course attempts to go beyond
merely describing current accounting practice and theor y
. If all
users of financial data were entirel y
satisfied with the data available,
it would mean either that a state of perfection had been achieved or
that the users of the data were not sufficiently demanding. To this
end, the course focuses attention on those aspects of accounting
where modern business practices and present da
y
accounting
thought suggests that current practices must be modified to enhance
the usefulness of the information.
Accounting builds on a relatively small base of concepts and rela-
tionships. From this base, accounting develops into what appears to
be a ver y detailed and complex arra
y
of rules, procedures and finan-
cial reports. This course is divided into fourteeen lessons designed
to guide you through the subject in a planned series of steps.

managerial decisions and how to use accounting information for
long-range pricing and capital budgeting decisions. In addition to
providing private sector managers with an introduction to the uses
of accounting data and theor
y
, the course also provides a guide to
governmental and not-for-profit budgeting systems and perform-
ance evaluation systems. The course is designed to satisfy the needs
of the potential accounting major as well as those not planning t
take further accounting courses.

EDUCATIONAL
ALTERNATIVES FOR
B. C. ADULTS
In addition to the consortium members, there are 20 other public
education institutions in B.C. to bring
y ou the widest possible
range of educational opportunities. You might wish to take advan-
tage of these offerings in a number of ways. For example,
• you can combine home-study courses through the Consortium
with classroom learning at y
our community college, or
y ou can ease y
ourself back into the education s y stem with dis-
tance learning courses, and then transfer
y
our earned credits to
one of B.C?s other colleges or universities, or
• you can take a year or two awa
y from full-time stud
y
to work or
raise children. Taking a couple of distance education courses
when your schedule allows will keep your academic skills from
getting rusty, and move you closer to your goal, too.
We encourage y
ou to contact an\' of the institutions listed here
for information on other educational opportunities in y
our region.
You can also get in touch with an advisor who will assist you in
making an educational choice that's right for you.

The main aims of this course are to provide an introduction to the
principal techniques used for finding integrals, that is, antideriva-
tives of elementary functions, and to show how these integrals can
be used to compute geometric andph
y
sical quantities such as area,
volume, curve length, centroids and such. About two-thirds of the
course is devoted to integration and applications. The remaining
third is devoted to an introductor
y
study of infinite series of real

OLI MATH 210 (3)
Calculus III
This intermediate-level course in multivariate calculus is intended
for students who have satisfactorily completed six credits in elemen-
tary differential and integral calculus. The expansion from two to
three (or more) dimensions requires a corresponding increase of
your symbolic representation. A new clement, the vector, a symbol
encompassing n numbers, puts in its appearance. In MATH 210
y
ou will learn how to work with vectors in modelling and solving
problems in multi-dimensional space.
This is carried out in six instructional units and two review units.
Unit 1 introduces the concept of vectors, develops the algebra of
vectors and puts vector anal
y
sis to use in solving problems involving
lines and planes in three dimensions. Unit 2 initiates the calculus of
vectors and considers curves and surfaces in space. Differentiation
of vectors is more fully developed in Unit 3, extending elementary
notions of differentiation to those involving multiple variables.
Integration is developed to encompass double integrals in Unit 5
and triple integrals in Unit 6. Finally, line and surface integrals are
considered in Unit 7. You will learn, with Green's Theorem, how to
transform a surface integral into a line integral and vice versa.
This course includes proofs and discussions at a level of complex-
ity suitable for those intending to specialize in mathematics, as well
as man y
examples and applications of the theor y
for those more
interested in being able to make use of the theory in their various
fields of interest.

Differential Equations
The main aim of the course is to introduce

ou to ordinar y
differen-
tial equations and to the methods available for their solution, and to
give you a broad exposure to the applications of these equations in
the biological, physical and chemical sciences, in engineering, and in
economics and the social sciences.
The course begins with introductor
y
material on differential
equations and several specific methods of finding analytical solu-
tions of first-order equations. Since differential equations occur very
widely in many fields, considerable emphasis has been given to their
use as a modelling tool. The course then covers linear differential
equations of higher order. This includes both anal
y
tical methods of
solution and general or qualitative properties of the solutions of
•suc-h-equations._Fol lowing _this,-linaLsystenlsarediscussed..Einally,_

Introductory Psychology I
This is the first of two courses which introduce you to the scientific
study of behavior. The main aims are to develop a basic understand-
ing of psychology, togain insight into psychological processes, and
to critically approach
Wile
materials that you ma
y subse-
quently encounter. While some attention is given to the potential
role of psychology in meeting personal and social problems as well
as those of business and industry, this course is intended primarily
to supply you with the basic tools you will need to study these
subjects in more advanced work.
This first course outlines the major theories and subject areas
which comprise the field of psychology and it describes how psy-
chologists go about the task of studying behavior. It discusses the
contribution of evolution and licredity to human behavior, and
outlines current theories and knowledge regarding the broad topics
of human development and brain functioning, and the more specific
subject areas of perception, awareness, learning, memory and lan-
guage.

PROGRAMS OF STUDY
DEGREES
Programs of the Consortium lead to a Bachelor of Arts from the
Open Learning Institute. Students may elect programs of studies
combining courses from any of the member institutions and the
province's community colleges to satisfy requirements for the
degree.
The course of study leading to a Bachelor of Arts with subject
specializations in Arts and Sciences requires concentrations of stud-
ies in two subject areas. A broad range of courses is available from
member institutions to enable y
ou to select interesting programs in
pure and applied disciplines such as Biolog
y , Criminology, Eco-
nomics, English, Geography, History, Mathematics, Psychology
and Sociology.
The Bachelor of Arts in Administrative Studies involves an inter-
disciplinary program with more requirements and fewer electives
than the regular B.A. Courses cover various topics in administra-
tion, economics and computing sciences. All interesting option
within this program is a combination of administrative studies, pub-
lic administration, and criminology courses. -
In addition to tile aforementioned courses of stud
y
, there are
various certificates, diplomas and degree programs available by dis-
tance education from member institutions. These are described
starting on page 10.
FURTHER OPTIONS FOR STUDY ARE UNDER CON-
SIDERATION BY THE ACADEMIC COUNCIL OF THE
OPEN LEARNING INSTITUTE AND THE CONSORTIUM'S
BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
PROGRAM PLANNING
If you wish to seek an OLI degree,
y
ou shouldplan your program
of study carefully. In choosing courses you should:
1.
Take account of the course numbering system. Courses
numbered at the 100 and 200 level are designated as lower level
courses and lay the foundations for more advanced work.
Courses numbered at the 400 level are upper level courses and
normally should be takeil after lower level requirements have
been completed.
2.
Make sure that the courses you choose will fulfil the program
requirements for the degree or diploma you seek. The program
requirements, described in the next sections, are designed to
ensure that you have a broad basic education, an appropriate
amount of advanced work and, where applicable, extensive
knowledge in the subject areas of specialization.
3.
Consult your advisor for assistance. Advisors will prepare a pro-
gram plan that will help you choose an appropriate sequence of
study and select courses to ensure that you will meet the require-
ments for a diploma or degree. They will also tell you when you
can start particular courses (not all university courses are offered
ever
y
session), and how soon courses not yet available from
member institutions will be offered.

Psychology of Aging
The psycholog y of aging is designed to provide y ou with
an
accu-
rate understanding of the psychological changes that people experi-
ence as they grow older. The course focuses on both the specific
types of changes that occur and the dynamic forces that underlie and
produce change. Topics covered in the course include research tech-
niques, theoretical approaches, memor y
, intelligence, personality
.
iid psychopathology. The course also focuses on identif y ing the
ontinually changing relationships between the individual and soci-
ety that help to shape the experience of aging. In addition to
emphasizing topical coverage of areas in which psychological
changes occur, the course covers the three main periods of the adult
life span - young and middle adulthood and old age.
Prerequisites
To succeed in this course, you do not need to have studied psychol-
ogy previously. However, successful completion of lower-level psv-
chology courses is strongly recommended background, and you
should have a working knowledge of scientific experimental princi-
ples. If this is
y our first psychology course, the review aspects of this
course will provide you with some of the necessary background as
you move along.

Social Psychology
The basic aim of this course is to show how theor
y and research
offer insight into various aspects of social behavior, and experience.
A highly comprehensive course, it includes ideas from many differ-
ent lines of scholarship, from genetics to psychoanalysis. The topics
follow a logical sequence that begins with a discussion of biological
evolution. The discussion proceeds to language and cultural evolu-
tion and then to the processes of individual development before
going on to individuals' experience of their social world and their
relationships with others. Some of the fifteen subsections are:
Moral Development: A Cognitive Approach
Integration and the Concept of Self
Social Perception
Attitudes
Communication
Groups
Persuasion and Coercion
Pacing
The course is designed for completion in thirty-two weeks. An
alternative broadcast schedule enables students to complete the
course in twent y-four
weeks.
The nine half-hour television broadcasts cover such course topics
as psychosexual development; identity; analysing interaction. In the
recommended schedule, two of the programs are followed b y a live
half-hour broadcast during which students may put their questions
and comments to a tutor leading a structured discussion.
Prerequisites
PSYC 100 or PSYC 101 and 102 or equivalent skills and know-
ledge. The Open Learning Institute's PSYC 230 is recommended as

Introduction to Sociology
A broad introductory overview of sociology.

ing some of the major problem areas of the discipline. Part II sur-
veys some of the principle institutions of society (e.g. the economy,
the polit y
, religion, famil y
and kinship, and education) with enipha-
sis upon their changing character in modern industrial societies.

Introduction to Sociology I
This course will familiarize you with the fundamental perspective
and concerns of sociology. The author works from the premise that
sociology is grounded in histor y
, that concepts like "rationalization"
and "alienation" are impossible.to understand without sonic discus-
sion of major historical developments. The focus of the course is on
the contrast between industrial and pre-industrial societies. This
theme is discussed in several different contexts: with respect to the
rise of capitalism, the division of labor, the erosion of traditional
values and the decline of the communit y
. B)' the end of the course
you should be able to define the relationship between an individual
and societ y
and be equipped to discuss the more abstract issues with
which sociologists concern themselves.
Prerequisites
None.
Students with credit for SOCI 100 ma y

ADMISSION
Admission to the programs of the Consortium is open to:
• any B.C. resident aged 18 or over.
• an y
B.C. residentaged less than 18 who has completed the
requirements of the B.C. Secondar School Graduation Certificate.
• residents of other Canadian provinces and territories, subject to
constraints of the member institution(s) where the courses are to be

Residents of countries other than Canada - including those tem-
porarily in Canada on visitor, student or other visa - will not nor-
mall)' be admitted.
Admission and registration is combined into a single process.
Please refer to the registration section of this calendar for further
details.
IMPOR TANT NOTE
Admission to a program offered b y
the Consortium and subse-
quent approval to enroll in courses of member institution(s), do not
confer the right to register directl y
in courses or programs of those
institutions, nor to transfer credits to those institutions. Students
planning to enroll subsequently at one of the member institutions
should consult that institution and expect to follow normal admis-
sion and registration procedures.
TRANSFER CREDIT
COURSES OFFERED BY
CONSORTIUM MEMBERS
For the purpose of fulfilling Consortium program require-
ments,
all courses taken at
any member institution will be
treated as if
taken at the Open Learning Institute. There
are
no
restrictions on the number of courses that
may be taken at any
one institution.
COURSES AT NON-CONSORTIUM
INSTITUTIONS
Students must complete at least 30 of the last 60 credit hours
taken towards the degree at one or more of the member institutions.
Except for this requirement, there arc no restrictions on the amount
of credit that ma
y
be transferred from non-Consortium institutions.
Note however that
y
ou must fulfil all requirements for the OLI
degree, and not all courses which
y ou ma
y
wish to transfer inav be
applicable.
Guidelines
The following guidelines are applied in decisions regarding trans-
fer credit:
1.
Transfer credit is awarded for courses which normall
y ma y be
used to complete the requirements for an OLI diploma or
degree, and in which a grade of C (60%) or higher was achieved.
Professional courses ma
y
also be included.
2.
Courses may be used to meet the general education require-
merits, even though they do not transfer as the exact equivalent
of the courses specified, as long as the Intent of the general
education requirement is fulfilled.
3.
All specific course requirements in subjects of specialization must
be completed. You may receive unassigned transfer credit for
courses taken elsewhere in that subject but still be required to
take specified courses. The unassigned credits ma
y
be carried as
electives at the level designated on
y
our transfer credit statement.
To appl y
for transfer credit, follow the procedures below. If you
have an
y
questions about how to appl
y
for transfer credit, or if you
have questions about the outcome once
y
ou have applied, consult
y
our advisor. Your advisor will assist y
ou in planning your study
program after y
ou have been assigned transfer credit. Much valuable
time ma
y
be lost if you enrol in courses which
y
ou do not require
for a degree.
PROCEDURES
i.
Transfer credit will be awarded onl
y
for studies taken through
an accredited or similarl
y
recognized institution, and onl
y for
work credited b y
that institution. Other formal studies may be
considered for credit on an individual basis.
ii.
Transfer credit will be awarded onl
y
on the basis of official
transcripts or appropriately authenticated copies. All documents
submitted, unless considered irreplaceable, will become the
property
,
of OLI. Authenticated translations of documents in a
language other than English or French ma\'be required.
iii.
Applications for transfer credit must be made on the Application
for Transfer Credit Form, which must be submitted along with
supporting documents. If application is being made for credit
for work taken outside British Columbia, the transfer credit
processing fee must also be submitted (see section on Fees).

iNTRODUCTION TO THE
?
OPEN UNIVERSITT
CONS OR TIUM OF
BRITISH COLUMBIA
A UNIVERSITY DEGREE FOR DISTANCE
LEARNERS
For several years, all British Columbia universities and the Open
Learning Institute have
been
offering home-study courses leading
toseparatebachelor's-degrcesHowe'cr-course-and-program-offer---
ings were somewhat limited, and no arrangements were in place for
combining credits toward a single degree.
Now the Open University Consortium of B.C. makes it possible
for students to combine classroom-based and home-stud
y courses
from all member institutions in order to obtain a recognized univer-
sity degree through the Open Learning Institute. Credits from
home-study courses at UBC, SFU, U\
T ic and/or OLI ma y
be amal-
gamated to form the basis of the degree. Knowledge Network
broadcasts support and enrich many of these courses.
While the Open University Consortium does not itself grant
degrees, it has made possible a broader range of degree options
within the existing University s
y stem b
y
modif
y ing the OLI univer-
sity degree to include extended transfer credit allowances from other
institutions.
HISTORY OF THE OPEN UNIVERSITY
CONSORTIUM
The Open Universit
y
Consortium of B.C. was created upon the
initiative of Dr. Patrick L. McGeer, Minister of Universities, Sci-
ence and Communications. In the spring of 1984, Dr. McGeer
asked that a committee be formed representing institutions and
agencies concerned with the project. He then invited Dr. William
C. Gibson, Chairman of the Universities Council of British Colum-
bia, to direct the work of the committee whose task was the prepa-
ration of a plan enabling an
y
person interested to acquire a degree
by distance education. The plan was prepared, and it was accepted
by the Minister in September 1984.
Under approved recommendations, appropriate courses ma
y
be
combined from the offerings of the three universities and the Open
Learning Institute, those offerings being supported in man cases
by
broadcasts emanating from the Knowledge Network.
This calendar has been prepared to detail those offerings and to
explain how you may seek admission and complete registation.
Appropriate courses taken at other accredited institutions are also
accepted. Those institutions include the colleges and institutes of
British Columbia, as well as others outside the province.
STUDYING WITH THE OPEN UNIVERSITY
CONSORTIUM
The Open Universit y Consortium of B.C. was created to serve
the growing number of British Columbians who need or prefer to
take university courses at home:
- people who live far from universities or community colleges
- people who have career commitments
- people who have domestic responsibilities
- people who have transportation difficulties
- people who want to learn in privacy.
- people who are disabled
With home-study programs, 'our learning time is flexible. As a
distance learner, you decide when and where to stud
y , and how
much time to devote to your educational goal in order to meet the
requirements of your program.
Here's how distance learning works:
You, the student...
decide that y ou want to continue
y
our universit y
education at a
distance. You review the Open University Consortium of B.C. Cal-
endar and select, from an of the member institutions, courses that
meet your selected program requirements. If y ou wish to transfer
credits from previous studies,
y
ou should arrange for transcripts to
be submitted. If
y ou need help in planning your program or deter-
-mining_your degree-requircments,assistance_isavailablefrontthc..
Advising Service...
housed at the Open Learning Institute offices to answer questions
about distance learning courses offered by the member institutions.
Advisors can also assist
y
ou with information about financial aid
and career opportunities. Once
y ou have selected your program of
studies,
y ou should consult the table of..
Course Start Dates...
which can be found on page 6
-
of this calendar. Because each niem-
ber institution has a different academic schedule,
y ou should plan
your program carefull
y
to fit your personal schedule. When you
have determined your course plan,
y ou can proceed with...
Registration...
which is done centrall y
through the Open Learning Institute. You
can register by mail or in person. If
y ou wish
y
ou max' also register
b y
phone using a special toll-free number and your VISA card. OLI
will then make arrangements with the appropriate member institu-
tions to mail
y ou your...
Course Package...
which will contain all print and audio learning materials basic to
your course, with instructions for ordering an
y other necessar
y
text-
books or special rental materials or equipment. Knowledge Net-
work viewing guides will also be included. You can work through
the course materials according to your own schedule in order to
meet assignment deadlines. When
y
ou want to discuss your course
work, you can contact
y our assigned...
Tutor...
who will mark our assignments, provide written comments, and
answer questions related to your course work. In order to complete
y our course, y
ou must write and pass an...
Examination...
which 'ill be held at a centre as convenient to
y our home as possi-
ble. Examination schedules will be mailed to
y
ou during the course
of the learning session. After the exam-marking period,
y
ou will

This course is designed to further

assessment of social developments in Canadian society. The course
emphasizes two major themes: how are scarce resources such as
money and power distributed in Canada, and what are the belief
systems which purport to explain why a particular distribution is
just or unjust? You will focus on how particular aspects of Canadian
societ
y
developed (the histor
y of social organizations) and how
Canadian societ

Philosophy of the Social Sciences
How predictable is human behavior? What characterizes an explana-
tion, and what does an explanation accomplish? Can social science
be free of value judgements?
These are some of the questions that people ask when they are
thinking deeply about problems or ideas in social science. SOCI
410 compares the most stimulating answers known to modern phi-
losophy. Among the specific topics covered are: free will and deter-
minism; the role of "values" in sociological explanation; varieties of
positivism and their relationship to the social sciences; and Carte-
sian dualism and logical behaviorism.
Although the subject matter of the course is broad and varied, it
encourages reading and thought along lines that intersect meaning-
fully.

Sociology of the Family II
A continuation of SOCI 430, this course provides a cross-cultural
comparison of the family and looks at family variation over geo-
graphical distance rather than historical distance. The course shows
how households and communities are organized in various societies
vastly different from our own and thereby broadens and refines the
theoretical propositions already made about the family. The course,
therefore, challenges the assumption that "the family" is a universal
unit and is universally the same. The practical reason behind this
stance is that we live in a multicultural country made up of people
having different values, backgrounds and famil
y
organizations. The
student is provided with a basis for understanding these differences
and distinguishing between an ethnocentric bias and a legitimate
critique.

THE OPEN LEARNING INSTITUTE
The Open Learning Institute was established by the Government
of British Columbia in 1978 to offer a first degree; Career, Techni-
cal and Vocational Studies; and Adult Basic Education (Grade 10 or
Grade 12 completion). With only rare exceptions, the Institute uses
distance education methods exclusively.
The Institute is also a member of the International University
Consortium. Through that membership, the Institute has access to a
rich distance education curriculum, the core of which is television-
supported interdisciplinar
y
courses. These programs will be broad-
cast on the Knowledge Network starting January 1985.
THE UNIVERSITIES
As part of an extended and enriched service to residents of British
Columbia, the three universities have developed distance learning
components through their divisions of continuing education. With
their special resources and facilities, the Universit
y of British
Columbia, Simon Fraser Universit y
, and University of Victoria are
able to provide courses and programs of particular interest to per-
sons seeking to improve their formal qualifications in such varied
fields as Nursing, Criminolog y , Kinesiologv, Social Work, Educa-
tion, Information S
y stems, Public Sector Management, and in the
Arts and the Social Sciences.
THE KNOWLEDGE NETWORK
TheKnowledge Nenvork was created by the Government of
British Columbia in 1980 to serve as an electronic classroom for the
province. British Columbians in 247 communities now receive its
broadcasts and participate in its offerings. The Network broadcasts
70 hours a week. Canada's Anik C-3 satellite allows the Network to
beam its signal not only throughout the province but also to the
Yukon, the Northwest Territories, and Alberta. In addition, the
Network's subsidiary
Knowledge-West Communications Corporation
will provide closed-circuit television and data services to universi-
ties, teaching hospitals, and other institutions.
The Network provides varied and eclectic educational programs:
tele-courses carrying college and university credit; professional,
technical and technological courses for persons wishing to upgrade
their qualifications; programs for children; support for classroom
learning; broadcasts of a cultural nature. The resources of the Net-
work are available to the Open University Consortium of B.C., and
a substantial number of the Consortium's offerings will be sup-
ported by broadcasts.
