Once digital educational content has been indexed and hyperlinked, its utility and usability increases manifold. One single digital copy can be accessed via the internet, used, reused, and referred to without limits, and without the necessity of creating multiple copies. Updating this piece of content is also easy, with any updates of the original copy immediately accessible online, via a hyperlink or "citation". This process makes digital educational content truly reusable. Digital "reusable learning objects" form the backbone of any eLearning program as the educational content.
