• In the early 90s some Luther Seminary (St. Paul)
  faculty members were struggling to retain
  students who didnt have the funds or, because of
  family obligations, couldnt relocate to attend

  that would enable people to communicate with each
  other without being in the same place at the same
  time.
• Learning management systems (LMS) also sometimes
  known as Course management systems (CMS) have
  come a long way since those early days.
