The technical prowess required to read the Web is very low:
mostly everyone can read it, regardless of location, age, education,
and (when accessibility guidelines are considered) disability
Such an easy reading does not extend to authoring which is
influenced by too many tools, languages, protocols, expectations
and requirements
This is particularly true for e-learning:
Because it is constrained by several de facto standards
(i.e.
SCORM
) to ensure content portability
Because it requires a quite large use of multimedia contents
