The Pearson executives should be publicly whipped for producing such a system. My girlfriend took a graphics design course at the local JC and the whole system was managed by Pearson. She has a disability so she likes to view her textbooks on her iPad and do her programming and photoshop on her desktop. She couldnt do that because Pearson didnt support the iPad. And there's more. All communication with the teacher was done through a Pearson email system, so she had to logon to their system to see if there was any email for her. She got dinged because she didnt use their email system to communicate with the other students. For her final project she was required to upload her website project to their system for the teacher to review, but there was a 256K limit on file uploads so she couldnt upload her images. There we were at 2am Monday morning setting up a website on 1&1 so she could present her site to the class that morning. (And I had to get up at 5:30 to commute to San Francisco, 220 miles.)
Fortunately the teacher was willing to accept a url to a commercial website instead of the Pearson garbage.
I could rant on and on, but thankfully (for you) I have a meeting in 5 minutes. :-)
