Connection
Community
"[T]here is a need to work with learners to assist them with establishing community or feelings of connection in online contexts. Integrating strategies for community building into the design of the course may assist with this effort" (Song 69).
Engagement and Monitoring
The Song study also found that students ranked motivation and time-management skills as the third and fourth most important factors in what makes a student successful in an online course.
A recent study finds that "students’ inadaptability to unmonitored e-learning" is a common cause for failure in flipped-classroom models.
