Robert, Or the typographical errors caused by "user error". My mother, a veteran, was in the VA hospital which uses electronic records. There were so many errors that it ultimately cost her her life and vitality. Renee Shaffer
Robert, Oh yes, Eric Erikson. Hadn't thought about him in a while. I also believe that the students has to grant "permission to change" in their learning. Renee Shaffer
Nikki, Yes, adaptive learning should ultimately be for the student but often times, the educational institution also wins. Renee Shaffer
LE, Oh wow, the instructor weren't in charge of actually making the courses? Some schools have the instructors doing everything which is a bit too much. Renee Shaffer

LE, Very good points. It will be interesting to see if the intelligent tutor can really deeper their learning. Renee Shaffer
Rick, I liked the quote about girls liking guys with medals. Renee Shaffer
Joe, Great work. so often I work with instructors who have no idea what course learning objectives are and what they are supposed to do with them. Needless to say, their course evaluations usually come back poor. Renee Shaffer
Leigh, So glad that you ask the questions before hand! Great job. Renee Shaffer
