But just as Moore's Law hits physical constraints, network effects have a limit in many types of online communities. Indeed, in some cases, a reverse network effect may exist: as new people join, others are motivated to leave.

The system is under attack from all sides - and rightly so. The Delta Project report lambasted colleges for doing a poor job of cost containment. Marc Scheer penned No Sucker Left Behind which exposes a system of education that is failing on all fronts - it's too expensive, there is no real access, and the quality is poor.

Our primary source of knowledge for this workshop is your stories about digital identity. Not your academic writings, or well-observed insights: those, we hope, will come later. First, we're asking you to contribute a small story in which you are the main charecter (or at least a first-hand witness), and which you believe illuminates an interesting aspect, or dilemma, of digital identity.

One of the best things about the educator accounts is that you can create the student accounts, and students do not need to provide an e-mail address. Another nice feature in Diigo is that you can upload an Excel spreadsheet in .csv format with student names, usernames and passwords, and the accounts are created in an instant. Student accounts are placed in a private class, and all of the students are considered "friends" and can share bookmarks, sticky notes and group forums automatically.

With growth of online course enrollments outpacing enrollments in traditional courses by 500%, institutions of higher education are experiencing significant changes in terms of long-term strategic planning. Along with providing for the infrastructure requirements associated with online course offerings, the issue of faculty preparedness and training is considered problematic from an administrative perspective.
