Abstract
In contemporary society there is a growing need for highly educated people who are able to deal with various, unforeseen problems. The need for specific eLearning solutions is obvious. Most of the popular environments like Blackboard, Moodle and Canvas lack the functionality of dealing with problems coming from unforeseen future. This paper is meant to initiate a discussion on the requirements of eLearning systems in modern societal settings. It outlines the main characteristics of eLearning systems that are proved to be valuable and also draw attention to the questions and needs of current society. The main conclusion is that the focus should be on knowledge sharing which benefits from insights and contributions of all participants of the educational setting. A flexible mindset is a necessity for being able to develop the requirements for such a new eLearning environment.
