Online learning may be difficult for some students for various reasons.  Students behaviors are very important to keep track of especially during online discussions and online learning.  Most students can be emailed but it is good to check in with them to prevent attrition. Also, they can have other conflicts such as technology or being overwhelmed or just procrastination.  

Adding discussion questions will make the online learning better.  Also, consider the different types of learners and what they might need to learn.  

There is so much more to online learning and it is important that I get to know my students, make sure they know me and give timely and consistent feedback.  

In an e-learning envionment, it is very imporant for students to be able to access the online information.  Actionable feedback is important to keep students engaged and focused. 

I will stay positive and focus on feedback with students.
