E-classes click with students - HOLLY K. HACKER, The Dallas Morning News
People shop online, pay bills online and even meet each other online. So why not take classes online, too? That seems to be the mindset of a rising number of students in Texas and elsewhere. Nationwide, an estimated 2.6 million students are taking online classes, based on a survey released in November by the Sloan Consortium, a group of universities and organizations trying to improve online learning. That's up from about 2 million students just a year ago. Texas' two- and four-year colleges, particularly public ones, report hearty growth, too.
