Maximise learning with email - Eric Wilson, the Age, Australia
One of e-learning's greatest bugbears is maximising the participation rate of online courses. Sending students to a website doesn't guarantee they will enrol.

The fundamental issue is that as a content delivery mechanism, web pages are pulled in by a user at will, while compliance training really needs to be pushed into the user's face.
