"This is an opportunity to re-invent university provision, offering new accredited programmes to support the increasing number of lifelong learners throughout the world via platforms for innovative flexible anywhere anytime learning." http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/news/enterprise/3414216/researchers-tell-traditional-universities-ignore-e-learning-at-their-peril/?olo=rss
