My article: Paulsen, M. F. 2009. Resting in e-learning peace. IJNVO Vol 6, No 5.is now published at www.inderscience.com
Abstract: The European Megatrends project has analysed 26 major e-learning successes and ten conspicuous e-learning initiatives which did not reach targeted goals. There is much to learn from the many successful European e-learning initiatives, but this article focuses on what we can learn from the ten discontinued initiatives that spent about €150M before they were closed down after an average of four years in operation. The article presents the ten discontinued initiatives comprising four consortia, two institutional initiatives and four governmental and political initiatives. It includes a discussion on why they failed and concludes with seven recommendations that are drawn from the analyses of the ten initiatives.
Keywords: European Megatrends project, Hungary, Norway, UK, USA, United Kingdom, United States, discontinued initiatives, e-learning, electronic learning, online education, online learning, project failure, sustainability
