Data on general use of technology in education is hard to come by and typically outdated by the time it is distributed. My writing activities require that I constantly search for such data so that I can provide a sense of what is typical. Andy Carvin’s site<\/a> alerted me to a new study concerning K-12 students enrolled in online courses conducted by the Sloan Foundation<\/a>. While the rapid increase in online instruction in higher ed was obvious from my vantage point, I must admit that the level of online instruction in K-12 surprised me.<\/p>\n

The pdf is available for download at the Sloan site.<\/p>\n
