Is it possible to drop out of teacher training

11 Reasons Why Students Drop Out Of Online Courses

Online

1. Low Student Motivation. Many students don’t treat the online learning process with the same amount of engagement as a physical class. The student lacks interest when using an online LMS because there is no actual teacher in front of them.
2. Poor Communication And Feedback. When taking online classes, a major drawback is missing one of the most important actors of the educational process: the teacher.
3. Technical Issues. I always thought back when I was a full time software developer that the next generation of kids at schools would do me out of a job. How could they not with the readily accessible and multitude of training courses online for a small fee or for free.
4. Too Expensive. Whether we are talking perceived value or real value you can not say your online courses provide the same value as the courses in the classroom.
5. Poor Time Management By Students. As the course semesters progress if students don’t keep up to date with the training material and teachers or lecturers don’t ensure students do so then they will dropout or fail.
6. Unrealistic Educator Expectations. When converting their courses to teach online if they are not providing equal or more support for online students then they will have to change their expectations.
7. Poor configured Learning Management System. Most educational institutions use Learning Management Systems (LMS) to act as the website interface to their students.
8. Course Not As Expected. Whether your course is in person or online a major reason for student dropouts is the course expectations and marketing of the course being different to the reality of the course.
9. Poor Quality Course Material. There is nothing more disappointing then paying a lot of money for an education to get only mediocre course material. As mentioned earlier in the course traditional eLearning has failed and students don’t want a book online with a few pictures and videos.
10. Feeling Isolated. It is easy in an online class to feel isolated. There are many ways to deal with this but basically it comes back to creating an online community for your students.
