A spirited debate has eruped following the publication of Thwarted Innovation: What Happened to e-Learning and Why by Robert Zemsky and William F. Massy. Probably the best response comes from Carol A. Twigg and is reporduced here in this DEOS post from Catherine Chambers. Twigg writes (accurately), "Most of the 'study' is based on their views of what 'happened toCRLFe-learning' rather than on their research." Al Powell offers another nice commentary, arguing that "Maybe the dot-commers in E-learning have decided that it's a bust, butCRLFpublic institutions haven't." And Kevin Lydon asks, "Why doesCRLFe-learning have to replace traditional education before it is considered a positive innovation?"
