Training & Development, Nov, 2001 by Eva Kaplan-Leiserson

Stephen Lahanas, learning technology consultant and list owner of the online discussion forum e-learning leaders, asserts that the biggest flaw of the new economy is assuming that the old economy has to be thrown out. Instead, he says, technology should be applied to current approaches to improve or reengineer them. "The same holds true for education," he says. "We don't have to reinvent it nor is it advisable to do so. Our mandate should be to improve and empower it."

Now you have some issues to consider.
