The Old College Try For Online Learning
from the still-going.. dept
Despite the dot com bust, it appears that online learning is still pushing forward. Of course, it's not going forward with as much noise or money, but many still think there's a market there. A few companies are making money (though, it took a long time to get to that point). Regular universities are looking at online components, but most are going slowly. The article doesn't necessarily have all the answers, but it certainly seems like there's a lot going on in the space.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
