6. THE CURRENT INDUSTRY STATE
 Forbes states that based on research , e-learning or online learning industry
is poised to be a USD 107 billion market in 2015 . Some of the MOOC
(Massive Open Online Course )big players using tradition learning
management system(LMS) . Forbes also reports that 61% LMS are also on a
roadmap to be replaced .There is a larger focus on college MOOCS versus
school based learning.
 Gartner based research(Cool Vendors in Education , 2014) finds that
learning needs to be adaptive especially digitized learning which needs to
include 3D based learning , and also enhance SEL as part of learning
process. A credential process in learning has still not evolved ,where the
holistic or modular approach represents all formal to casual learning
 Learning content needs to be accredited .There is a vast amount of content
, learning games etc in the web and internet but it is not monitored or
analyzed over time as to what the outcomes are 6
