The report also found that students increasingly see benefits to online learning, with 57 percent of respondents in high school saying that it would put them in control of their learning, up from 40 percent in 2009, and 56 percent saying that it would allow them to work at their own pace, a five percent increase over the same period. Students also said that it would provide other benefits, such as improved ability to review materials, a greater sense of independence, and an improved opportunity to succeed in class, in greater numbers than they did in 2009, though they are still not in the majority.

Good stats and on the correct course, thinking about it and not sounding negative, from observation, it's a mind set change with these 21st Century tools. Those who achieve are on top of this, and the others may feel an invasion of their personal worlds. Yet the mind set is shared with those in front them, standing at a podium. I have found it interesting that this year many sources for collaboration and social media have changed their logo to include Learning in their names. Instead of Social Network - Social Learning Network or Community. Putting stats aside, once that reluctant learner starts using the learning networks and tools and sees their achievement (grades), the stats for success with mobile learning starts to fill out on the positive side. Nothing like a winner, everyone gets on board.
