An online learning system (OLS) also allows face-to-face instructors to deliver content, engage students with diverse learning needs, accept (and grade) homework assignments, deliver and grade quizzes efficiently, and keep students updated on their academic progress throughout the course.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Online learning requires a different cadence than face-to-face classes; it\u2019s not merely a once or twice a week affair. For any online learning to be effective, prompt and thoughtful (deliberate) responses or feedback are vital to building and maintaining student engagement. Prompt and individualized responses to student posts in discussion boards build student interest and engagement, and encourages greater participation. When the instructor commits the effort and time, online learning offers a terrific platform.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Margaret L.
