"e-learning or online learning is just another delivery and administration mechanism for helping individuals to understand or 'make sense of'. It can have many different elements which combine to enable learners to achieve objectives. Perhaps it is better referred to as ME-Learning. However, like all learning, it requires significant initial investment in the learning design - identifying what the learner needs to learn, or 'makes sense of' and describing how best to present that to the learner. With a wealth of public domain information on the internet, in a number of areas it is no longer necessary to create new content!"
