Guglielmino and Guglielmino (2003) broadly define two components of learner readiness for e-learnin as technical and self-directed learning readiness. They define each in terms of readines, knowledge, attitudes, skills and habits. They suggest strategies for increasing success rates. These include providing opportunties for students to assess their readiness, providing opportunities for training and support and making changes gradually (Guglielmino & Gugliemino, 2003).
