Guidelines must be set in place and students shoud be held accountble for their work. This is something tht should be communicated in the beginning of the course. Follow-ups and holding the students accountable for themselves is imperative to the student's success. It is also important to have a common forum for posting questions as it provides students an opporunity to learn from each other. This can also reduce the teacher's incoming emails. Both the teachers and students should understand the process of worker smarter, not harder, when in relates to online learning.
