QA combines strategies used in the commercial gaming environment with lessons from educational research on learning and motivation.

Study: Students want more online learning - 0 views

  • According to the report, more than 40 percent of sixth through 12th graders have researched or demonstrated interest in taking a course online, but only 10 percent have actually taken an online course through their school. Meanwhile, 7 percent of middle school students and 4 percent of high school students instead have pursued opportunities outside their school to take online courses--underscoring the disconnect between the supply and demand for online learning in today's schools.
  • The findings are included in the report "Learning in the 21st Century: 2009 Trends Update," which offers a further analysis of data from Project Tomorrow's Speak Up initiative, an annual survey that has collected and reported on the views of more than 335,000 K-12 students, parents, and educators in the United States about online education and 21st-century learning.
