A website, usually hosted by an <university>, that takes what is done in class, and pastes it online. It is already much more rational and efficient, and opens up the way for potential sharing outside of the institution (or by default paywalling as the <University of Oxford> did.

The fundametnal problem with VLEs is that they tend to not have enough incentives for students to contribute at all to the content. This is basically the major motivation behind <OurBigBook.com>.

Generally, if something is labelled as "e-learning", it's not a good sign, as it implies that it adheres to the "teacher"/"student" separation which <Ciro Santilli> much despises: <E-learning websites must allow students to create learning content>.
