As we move forward exploring effective methods of Online Course Facilitation, there are underlying issues that can detract from the benefits of online learning.
Technical difficulties that may arise during online classes can frustrate the student. Researchers have also suggested that technical difficulties, which inevitably arise during online training, have the potential to disrupt the learning process (Webster & Hackley, 1997).
Visit the following page (https://elearningindustry.com/5-common-problems-faced-by-students-in-elearning-overcome ) as a starting point in discussing the negative impact technical issues have on an online course, and any solutions to these underlying technical issues you can employ, if any, to make online learning a viable solution.
