Conclusion E-learning is becoming popular to students, especially to

working and non-traditional students.

Time consuming for faculty

Spell the answer to every possible question related to students

Course management in details

Delivery issues

Quality and Assessments Issues

Preventing Cheating and Plagarisism

Conclusion There are always risks and impacts and associated with all

technologies and deliveries.

There seems to convey a difference between the word ‗risk‘ and risky

Public discussion is probably more likely to use the adjective ―risky‖ than the noun ―risk‖ referring to the probability of certain events by normally by engineers.

According to Dr. Dr. William A. Wulf (Past President of The National Academy of Engineering), the greatest challenge for the 21st century, may be engineering ethical issues not for individual engineers (what he called ―microethical‖ issues but, rather, issues of social policy regarding technology (what he called ―macroethical‖ issues).

Memristors Chua deduced the existence of memristors from the

mathematical relationships between the circuit elements.

Memristor theory was formulated and named by Leon Chua in a 1971 paper.
