Phrasal Verbs:- open out- open up•• Cultural note:Eine britische Fernuniversität, die 1969 gegründet wurde und vor allem Berufstätigen im Fernstudium Kurse auf verschiedenem Niveau bietet, insbesondere wissenschaftliche und berufliche Fortbildungsprogramme. Studenten jeder Altersgruppe, selbst solche ohne die erforderlichen Schulabschlüsse, können das Studium nach vier oder fünf Jahren mit dem Bachelor's degree und dem Master's degree abschließen. Teilnehmer studieren von zu Hause - teilweise mittels audiovisueller Medien - schicken ihre Arbeit ein und erhalten eine Rückantwort von ihrem tutor (Dozent). Studenten können auch am Direktunterricht mit wöchentlichen Seminaren in Studienzentren und an Sommerschulen teilnehmen. Nach dem erfolgreichen Vorbild der Open University gibt es inzwischen auch in anderen Teilen der Welt ähnliche Fortbildungsprogramme* * *['əupən] 1. adjective2) (allowing the inside to be seen: an open book.) offen3) (ready for business etc: The shop is open on Sunday afternoons; After the fog had cleared, the airport was soon open again; The gardens are open to the public.) geöffnet4) (not kept secret: an open show of affection.) offen5) (frank: He was very open with me about his work.) offen6) (still being considered etc: Leave the matter open.) offen7) (empty, with no trees, buildings etc: I like to be out in the open country; an open space.) offen2. verb1) (to make or become open: He opened the door; The door opened; The new shop opened last week.) öffnen2) (to begin: He opened the meeting with a speech of welcome.) eröffnen•- opener- opening
