The cost of interrupted work: more speed and stress - 0 views
-
2008 multitasking study. From the conclusion: "Our results suggest that interruptions lead people to change not only work rhythms but also strategies and mental states.

-
"Online learning is sweeping across America. In the year 2000, roughly 45,000 K-12 students took an online course. In 2009, more than 3 million K-12 students did.
