I have always been involved in online learning because of the potential it offered tenable those who could not afford it access to an education. Now it is beginning to appear (as I have always thought it wood) that providing this alternative access will become a necessity, as the majority of the population will not be able to afford college tuition and expenses. Karl Fisch comments, "if we stop "preparing them for college" and actually make their education meaningful and relevant right now, a by-product will be they will actually be better prepared for college and the world of work."
