However, politics got in the way of that particular development so it is with great satisfaction that this is now achieved as a part of the idibl framework.

Why indeed should people choose to learn in an online community, but don't you think as younger generations arrive into the workforce, that it wont be a question, rather an expectation that at least some part of the course will involve work in online communities of learning? I don't remember asking 'why should I go to lecture hall to learn about my subject'. I went there because of the 'theme' that I think your are talking about above, which I agree is essential for online community learning models. I like your course model btw, in particular the module on Organizational Impact, which I think is key in supporting and enabling the learner's ambitions of learning in a work context.
