| Survey: More K-12 students taking online classes |
 |
| |
|
|
| |
While many adults are choosing to enroll in online colleges to take advantage of flexible scheduling options, new research reveals that this trend is spreading to a younger group of pupils as well.
A recent report from Project Tomorrow and online learning service provider Blackboard indicated that 27 percent of high school students and 21 percent of middle schoolers were enrolled in at least one online course last year. These figures showed increases of 7 percent and 5 percent, respectively, from the previous year.
Respondents' main reasons for taking online courses included their ability to personalize their education, work at their own pace, earn college credit, take classes that are not available at their campus-based schools and manage a busy schedule.
However, experts say that the demand for online education in grades K-12 may be greater than the number of course options available to students.
Consequently, teachers who are able to administer online classes or offer web-based learning options to their students may increase their chances of landing fulfilling jobs in the fast-growing education field. |
