[Refer] Global Knowledge Economics Council Standards Committees
The Global Knowledge Economics Council is up and running and now they're recruiting people for their standards committees. The GKEC site looks a little sparse at the moment (many of the links point to empty yahoo groups) but the membership, as listed on the site, is top-flight. Watch that space.

[Refer] Lessons Learned at the Ivy League
What do alumni want from a university's web presence. Classes? lectures? No, not even e-learning (though they like the audio and video). This article dances all around it, so I'll just come out and say it: they want community. Virtual University Gazette, July, 2001.

[Refer] Learning Is Mandatory; Presence Is Optional
Good article culled by Eduprise. The gist is essentially that businesses are taking advantage of online learning and that they are doing so because of significant financial and other savings. Some good stats, informally expressed. For example, "For American General, the cost of sending an employee to Web-based training is one-half or less the cost of sending that individual to class." By Karen D. Schwartz, Mobile Computing and Communications, July 2001.
