Wk 3 - Comments Travis

"This is the strongest point of the authoring tools available to those looking at creating their own e-learning environment. “Some tools are very simple to use with templates, wizards, and features that work just like...Word or PowerPoint.” (Alcorn, page 2)."

I think that if we want teachers to move to and incorporate e-learning in the curriculum in the classroom these tools need to be easy to use. Not only for the tech novice for time management in general. Most teachers just don't have hours to spend with a intricate content tool. As the teachers become more proficient they may explore more advance tools. First we want to explore e-learning before they get bogged down with "semantics" so to speak. These tools can open a wonderful door but first we need the teachers to knock.
