I understand what you mean by multi-tasking style of learning and agree to what you said too a certain degree. But..... :) schooling without a clear structure especially for a first-timer is a very crucial factor on how the outcome will be. Without structure people drop out more often from a class compared to a class with a certain amount of structure. With the newbie audience in mind. Once you get past newbie level then you switch gears into multi-tasking style of learning. That I can agree with you. But not before that.
