So when will universities cotton on then?

Technology is changing how we learn:

Live online learning technologies - such as virtual meetings and classrooms, and video-conferencing - are becoming increasingly popular, with more than three-quarters of employers using them in 2011.

This is according to the benchmark study carried out by learning-technology provider Towards Maturity, which found that e-learning courses were the most popular learning technology this year, used by 80% of employers.

So when will universities start using these methods?

They are offereing about 15 free courses next term. The quality of the course was certainly comparable to the teaching I got a university.
