While my focus is K-12 eLearning, the manifesto is 100% relevant and drastically needed as a model for developers and school leaders. K-12’s eLearning growth is dramatic and going rather unchecked. School leaders often lack the skills to lead online programs and therefore, often roll out inadequate programs in order to meet enrollment demands. As these programs fail, leaders then believe eLearning is failing. Yet, more kids are enrolled in more courses and programs grow. To respond, builders build courses quicker, with less concern over learning goals and more concern over volume. The K-12 eLearning industry has models to follow in terms of programming, but needs a model for individual professionals to help them build a mental model of how to think about their roles. I believe the manifesto is just that tool. Thanks.

Jeff Salin D2L Creative Services	I full support a greater focus to performance based learning which respects and focuses efforts on application. Down with boring page turning eLearning!
Janet Gregory Compass Performance Solutions, Inc.	I whole-heartedly endorse the eLearning Manifesto. I will incorporate these 22 principles into the framework I follow when presented with learning requests and will encourage others to do the same. Thank you for moving us toward better elearning!
Anil Ladslaus D Souza	I endorse this Manifesto and agree with the 22 Principles listed.
Marsi Miller Paradyme Management	Yes, I endorse the manifesto! Bravo to the instigators. A few thoughts, none of which obviate my endorsement: – The word "manifest" makes me queasy. Hints of dogma. – Substantively, re. principle 21: it strikes me that the work of psychologist Robert Bjork and colleagues is relevant here. Particularly their finding that making mistakes when the stakes are low, then self-correcting, helps people learn (if I’m interpreting the research correctly). If true, perhaps that would mean that principle 21 would be more than an option, it’s necessary. We know that organizations go on and on about failure being a good thing. In my experience, they don’t mean it. That’s why if the research shows low risk failure is a good thing, it might help make this principle palatable to executives.
James D. Ehinger Cornerstone Information Systems	I applaud the creators of this Manifesto and will be applying its principles to our training and course development.
Yongcheng Gan PHO	I fully endorse this Manifesto. We should take the challenges and actions to make eLearning meaningful, memorable, and engaging for learner experiences. Let’s get serious!

Sharon Tavera Humana	Yes, I endorse and fully back this Manifesto!
Kevin Mehnert	I subscribe to and embrace the challenge of realizing the values and characteristics of serious eLearning.
Amy Bowser-Rollins Litigation Support Guru	I will absolutely endorse and promote this manifesto. I work in an industry (legal) that is slow to change in terms of embracing technology. Add to that the negative perceptions about eLearning training in general and I have my work cut out for me. I love that you guys have come together to try and turn eLearning on its head. I feel lucky that I am both the SME and the eLearning designer.
