To my mind, the discussion of learning objects went off the rails when people started treating them as static publications rather than mutable elements of an ongoing conversation. History bears this out: "TLF (The Le@rning Federation) Learning Objects became irrelevant to today's learners about 2005 - when user-generated and filtered content began to gather more relevance than that of top-down institutions." Why? "TLF LOs were/are too hard to access and that it was mostly impossible to assess student's learning because they did not allow a venue for conversation around the content." Nothing that couldn't have been predicted.
