Having exam out of university campus, lack of communication with classmates probably
Have you seen this thread:
https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_are_the_advantages_and_challenges_of_online_learning_and_teaching
I would argue that many of the challenges included here are still very valid
In the case in Indonesia, some part of the country has limited access to the internet, in terms of device and equipment. Moreover, computer literacy is another challenge for older generations and people in the remote area. We need to explore more about the potential of online education to make learning more significant.
Dear, the challenge of online education include poor network services, lack of power supply, high fees, lack of direct teaching and learning and poor computer compliance and literacy level.
For sure internet access is the main challenge. Assuming there is reasonable internet access, the biggest challenge I face is the design and development of content that is appropriate for online learners. Online learning is not dumping a textbook to learners and expecting them to 'learn'. Materials have to be re-versioned, repackaged and adapted to the needs of today's learners.

Dear researchers, Thank you very much to everyone who shared his sincere and wonderful opinion.
I'd add to this the notion that we strive to make online course content and experiences not mirror or even resemble the brick and mortar model. Online experiences can be nimble, non-sequential, rhizomatic and fluid. We should avoid the tendency to "onlinify" what we do on brick and mortar. Let's leverage the power of the internet and enable individual learning for each person.
The challenges facing the online education are the existing authenticity , availability the facilities for communicating correctly with students and providing a method for excluding cheating in this type of education.
Interacting with other students actually taught me a lot when obtaining my degrees. I did take a few on-line courses. In most of those we had to exchange communications with other students through an on-line bulletin board or wiki. However, I found student's statements tended to be bland and cautious, a kind of echo chamber in which they agreed with what others said. There was not real thought-provoking debate as occured when others were present in the classroom.
Testing was not as effective on-line. I spent much less time preparing for tests in the on-line courses. I would use two computers, one with the on-line text and one with the test, and search for answers as I took the test. The best on-line instructors required "essay" answers for all the tests.
Fadi Habash, I agree with your comment. I found interacting with the instructor was not easy. However, I had one instructor that reviewed all assignments and asked additional individualized questions based on completion of the assignment. I did learn more from that class, but that kind of individualized learning would not occur in a MOOC.
Dear researchers, Thank you very much to everyone who shared his sincere and wonderful opinion.
According to my readings on the subject, the main issue is communication of two types. The first is that, as another person here wrote, the students are very hesitant about sharing with other students, so collaborative work is not very good. As a result, the students add to that another problem. Since they don't communicate with other students, and they don't learn how to write effective texts (usually) due to a lack of a writing teacher, they lose the opportunity to practice communicating effectively. Unfortunately, modern employers are looking for students who can communicate effectively in spoken and written modes. Thanks for the question, Omar. I hope my ideas help.
Dear Dr. Konstantinos Kristofer Dimitriou thank you very much for your valuable contribution.
Some traditional teachers are not convinced of the importance of e-learning and its advantages, making it playable.The lack of acceptance of some of the idea of reducing the authority of the teacher and his control over the course of the educational process, and the emergence of the role of the learner significantly, as well as the participation of the teacher in a team to prepare the educational environment.
Dear Dr. Saba Abdulameer Kadhim Ziadi thank you for your comment.
Customizing the eLearning for the clients. Making eLearning bite sized, and less then 15-20 minutes.
Students feel uncomfortable with online learning due to incongruity with what they have been familiar with. It is not easy to switch from the familiar, traditional classroom and face-to-face instructor training to the new, computer-based training in a virtual classroom. Often times, students struggle to adapt to the new learning experience, which is entirely different from what they have been familiar.
From the technical perspective, inability to get strong internet connection that online courses require may be the factor. Due to this, students may fail to catch up with their virtual classmates. In addition, lack of ICT literacy makes their learning experience become problematic.
Online education is indeed a paradigm shift which must be embraced warmly by all. But to be sincere, there is no academic trust on the quality of such education by the majority of the populace. In this 21st century of highly competitive labour market, how many organizations are ready to abandon the graduates from face-to-face University education for Online education graduates. If curbing examination malpractices is a big challenge to conventional Universities, online education would be the worst. Hence, majority of education stakeholders see it as a systematic way of purchasing unmerited certificates. Nevertheless, until the quality control of online education is held with the topmost priority, no University will employ its products as lecturers or send their staff to in-service training online.
As a student of an online learning environment, the challenges exist in the technology itself - slow connections, computer reboots, headset static, etc. When researching, perhaps specify the type of online environment. The one I partake in sees plenty of opportunity for synchronous components. Tutorials include a facilitator and I can see all of my classmates (when they chose to turn webcams on), we all have microphone access to participate in rich discussions. It is a PBL group-work environment and we meet in virtual spaces (Adobe Connect, Google Hangouts) to complete assignmemts.
Thank you dear colleagues for your contributions to this discussion.
Dear Dr. Khaled Muftah Elsherif , thank you for your valuable comment.
Dear respected researchers thank you very much for your contribution. Regards
Challenges-device availability, internet connectivity, lack of interactivity does not cater for certain types of learners and some learners are simply not independent learners and require face to face interaction. Agree with Violet Bell and Victor Tubosun Babalola
As for the internet connectivity problem, the use of 5G network may be able to put an end to it. But the challenge of perception is still a major impediment to reckon with.
Online education has been in trend for a long time now. The COVID-19 has even amplified the importance of online learning since many traditional institutions switched their teaching/learning to online platforms. Some traditional institutions have also decided to continue operating online as a form of blended learning method. However, there are several challenges facing online line education such as lack of power supply, poor connectivity, poor Internet, and poor network services. Some, if not all of these enumerated challenges have already been mentioned by Adita Maharaj Victor Tubosun Babalola Violet Bell Khaled Muftah Elsherif
Lack of strong internet service in some developing nations including irregular power supply.
As I am from Bangladesh and my major was Geography and Environment. In our country irregular internet speed and power supply are the major constraint in online education, also all the students don't have smart device to join in the online classes. We can give lectures of theory courses through online but the practical classes is very tough to taught the student.
The main challenges facing online education today are many, the most important of which is the poor response of teachers and the lack of development of tests that reduce cases of cheating
Therefore, in the following, we shall explore the biggest challenges facing online education today.
Lack of Motivation in Students. ...
Infrastructural Problems. ...
Digital Literacy and Technical Issues. ...
Lack of In-person Interaction. ...
Lack of EdTech and Online Learning Options for Special Needs of Students.

This feedback enables the teacher in a conventional learning environment to use verbal and nonverbal signals to adjust the instructional process in real-time, in order to meet their student's needs.
