Holmes and Gardner (2006, p. 35) suggested that elearning has its origins in the drill and practice style, the programmed learning of Sydney Pressey’s testing machine in the 1920s. Such programmes created personalised testing, one student against the machine, a computerised stimulus-response approach typical of the behaviourist movement. The authors (2006, Chapter 3) traced the history of elearning from this point, in some detail, up to and including the advent of the Internet, which coincided with the birth of this journal. The early stages of Internet development, described by Gates in 1996 as a narrowband interactive network, took some 10 years to become the broadband interactive network of the Internet (Gates, 1996 p. 103), which moved elearning online and made possible the development of VLEs.
