E-Learning Content Today
Creating e-learning content is costly.
Existing electronic courses are seldom reused.

Learning Objects (LOs)
Small modular building blocks
Can flexibly be assembled to larger learning units
Can be shared among teachers, according to their specific needs
Reusable, accessible, interoperable, durable
