  5. Is It All Good? Difficulties in Online Learning University of Ottawa Study: 1.Robustness of dialogue 2. Spontaneity and improvisation 3. How others see you 4. Socializing 5. Technical issues It is enough to make some people uncomfortable.

  6. Robustness of Dialogue No immediate responses to postings – delays the development of conversation Dialogue more formal and emotionless No real criticism – dialogue feels less sincere

  7. Spontaneity and Improvisation No immediate response to postings – more structured and formal discussion No spontaneous conversation Less ability for improvisation

  8. How Others See You Harder to correct misunderstandings Harder to perceive emotions like sarcasm and excitement Less depth due to lack of facial and other physical expressions

  9. Socializing Harder to form friendships No reassurance from human contact Harder to feel validated without other people’s physical presence

  10. Technical Issues Basic computer skills required Basic computer equipment and Internet required Tech support generally not available 24 hours a day

  11. What Will Happen? Will children learn social skills? Will the poorest countries have more educated citizens? Will there be no more traditional schools? Will computers replace teachers? Will the world be full of geeks?
