While the learner is at the centre of education, and is deeply connected to the educator, it is important to also consider the other parties and challenges that exist in the larger educational system. Chickering & Ehrmann (1996) write that "technology is not enough" and identify institutional policy, and legislators as important components for technologies to be used effectively and efficiently. The implementation of their Seven Principles must go beyond the educator and student: "it is appropriate for legislators and other benefactors to ask whether institutions are striving to improve educational practice consistent with the Seven Principles" (Chickering & Erhmann, 1996, para. 35-36).
