Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in both the uptake of e-learning within higher education and research into its impact for institutions, practitioners, and students. In light of such an expansion of research, there are now several attempts underway to review the existing research and highlight areas worthy of future investigation. In the UK this year, the Association for Learning Technology (ALT) have published their research strategy (ALT, 2005) and the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) has been engaged in a discussion to determine research questions for future projects (Beetham, 2005). Beetham’s review identifies a broad range of questions emerging from previous JISC funded projects, including a gap in the research exploring the experiences of e-learners.
