Instructor have a big job to do when it comes to online learning. As I've mentioned before the "crutch" for not having visible sight of an instructor can be an impediment for visual learners and therefore it is crucial that the instructor to student (I2S) and student to instructor (S2I) and student to student (S2S) are more than willing to cooperate in the same paltfrom with a transperancy which is conductive to positive feedback from each other. Students both must have an open mind whereby their skills for communicating thought into written form as well as verbal (microphone statements) can come across clearly for the online community to extrapolate, compare, and cognitively make sense of it all.
