using the online course as an educational guide
many believe online learning to be easier than traditional coursework, but in my experience it can be harder if the class is not put together well. If the students are left to navigate without guidance they can easily get lost without an instructors presence. That is where the course content helps if it is structured in a concise and direct manner, the student can be guided on their educational journey with little necessary interaction.
Karen,
Hmmmm that is interesting. Do they not mind driving into class? You would think students would love the convenience; however, not all students are trained enough to get work done on time for online classes. Good point!

I find that my students online get lazy, and don't show up. I also think that on the ground classes keep one more responsible and accountable.
david,
You are correct. Confusion and frustration can easily set in if the class is not set up friendly.
