Teemu Leinonen argues that we should throw out the term 'learning object', reasoning that it doesn't add any meaning to the concept we are trying to define. "For me it is still just (learning) content with a good description (metadata) - just like all content should be." Scott Leslie expresses his agreement, but with a caveat: "my small fear is that in throwing out these terms, we'll also throw out many of the problems they were supposed to be trying to solve - namely enabling learning content to be shared and found through means that were otherwise unavailable."
