IEEEmember's Journal: Thoughts on online courseware

Tonight after having posted two comments on CMU's new Open Learning Initiative I received a visit to my website referred from slashdot ostensibly from Willie Wheeler.

Mr. Wheeler has co-written an article about jcourse, on-line courseware developed by CMU.

I am curious if Mr. Wheeler was attracted to my comment about courseware being more valid if it allowed pupil-teacher and pupil-pupil interaction or if he was more interested in my humorous post stating that once the pilot program was finished CMU would accept payment via PayPal.
