A major advantage of online learning is that it “can be an open door for those with restricted mobility or difficulty in accessing in accessing buildings. E-tivities provide opportunities to ‘travel’, meet and learn with others with comparative ease.” (Salmon G 2003,p.183)
With a lot of my students having learning difficulties such as dyslexia, it is easier for them to work with computers than paper-based writing because of tools such as spell check. Gilly Salmon in e-tivities (2003,p.184) backs this up, “mistakes in typing or spelling are not important with e-tivities. It’s the thought or contribution that counts!”

I like these snappy, to the point entries. The problem though is that it's easier to spot referencing probs!

don't forget you need a ref list- if you don't put them with entries (like the VLE one) there's no way for me to know what website you refer to and without a name it may as well not be there!
apart from that- this is a good start- more please
