eLearning risk article

I found a great article that addresses some of the risks associated with eLearning development. The article also provides an overview of risk paradigms and mitigation strategies. Interestingly the authors point to the fact that most risk assessment studies focus on IT/software projects and very little research has been conducted on eLearning projects. The authors cite several studies that highlight the importance of social/cultural obstacles to successful eLearning development.

Can anyone provide me with studies that specifically deal with eLearning cases?
Any idea why these studies are not more numerous considering the depth of computer based training programs?
