...the problem is that students, even if prepared for academic study, aren't prepared specifically for study online. To fix this, he suggests that students be vetted for this before starting their online courses:
Every college that offers online courses should require students to pass an online orientation. I'm envisioning a one-credit course, taken online, that covers the technical requirements of online classes, familiarizes students with the pedagogical approaches they can expect, addresses candidly the time commitment and degree of responsibility and motivation required, and essentially teaches students how to take a course online.
