Difference is obvious

An online course has a basic scheme: classes, modules, or other basic format of the course, written outcomes, objectives, or competencies, preferably for each unit (class, module, or whatever), interactivity plan (or ideas), how students will interact with the instructor and other students, photos and/or other graphic materials to be included, and the instructors ideas about how students will be able to approach the course differently depending on their learning styles. A course syllabus contains a course overview, course title, how to contact you, your grading and assignment policies, required textbooks, etc., and assignments and tests are other essential elements between f2f and an online course. Some of this help can be obtained from an instructional designer and other faculty members. The content has to be of appropriate format to cover all learning objectives. A consistent course design has to be maintained with minimal online lectures, and providing multiple opportunities of online interaction. Being active in the LMS and revising the course periodically is very helpful to maintain the quality of education as the technology is updated.
