Wider, real world audience is a huge motivator.  This encourages students to be sure that their work is thorough, correct and complete. Greater opportunity for feedback.

More tools are available to students to express themselves online, graphics, sounds, links to outside web pages, surveys, videos forms

Increased technology skills
