Excellent points, Donna. This has huge impact on relevancy and application. This also changes the role of the instructor and the content of the course.

The Effect of New Technology
Accessing content is one of the major benefits, David, however, the technolgy also has the potential to increase collaboration, interaction, and self-directed learning. Can "flashier" content also be more effective in supporting all of these?

Internet Changes
Yes, Jon, because it is user-based it means that the user dictates the results to a large extent. It also provides opportunities for direct publishing which is changing the publishing business completely. How do you think the customization and publication potential of the Internet could be better maximized with students?
