Interesting article on the barriers to e-learning on a national level. The basic problem is that learning packages have to be localized to the standards of the district, state or school. A few companies are making good money providing content not only to specific states but to many international countries, charging per course. Many states still have no funding for virtual classrooms or only limited funding for pilot programs, whereas several countries have their entire educational curriculum available electronically. Maybe it's time for a national curriculum?
