120 of the 140 graduates from the BA (Hons) Learning Technology Research met for the first time in Chelmsford to collect their certificates in the Cathedral at Anglia Ruskin University's awards ceremony.
From as far as Northern Ireland 120 graduates of this innovative online
and work-based degree travelled to meet each other and their tutors for
the very first time. There were hugs, tears and smiles as the graduates
recognised people with whom they had formed "very deep bonds" over
three years of studying together in an online community. In the same
ceremony, The Right Reverend Bishop Simon Barrington-Ward was awarded
an honorary doctorate of the university and went on to speak about the
openness of opportunities offered at Anglia Ruskin University. The
stories he told and the values he proposed were instantly recognisable
by the graduates - an unintended connection which was all the more
valuable for that. The ceremony marked a critical moment in the
development of Ultralab's Ultraversity project too - congratulations to
all the team who made it possible.

BA Honours Graduate Jane Day is interviewed
by BBC Look East reporter John Halford and describes her work on the
Ultraversity degree, anticipating a first face-to-face experience at the graduation
ceremony in November 2006. Also interviewed is Dr Paul Clark,
Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Learning and Teaching) of the Open University.
When asked "Is the Open University concerned about a possible rival?",
Paul commented: "No, I don't think we're worried. We may learn
something from Anglia Ruskin, but I don't think that we feel threatened
by them, we're pleased with what they've done."
