I've captured a lot of this already but Tony Hirst pulls it together into a nice neat package. Tellingly, he writes, "as the big publishing companies develop a stranglehold over education content, assessment proctering, and assessment setting, should we start thinking about notions of plurality." The story, as Hirst writes, is still running. None of this should be a surprise to anyone - the only people caught off-guard are those who don't know whether they want to be invested in this online education thing in the first place.
