5. Challenges
1.Lack of discussion.
Completion rate of MOOCs is
often lower than *13%.
Because There are no punishments if
students give up learning, and there
are no rewards beside knowledge
they learned.
Also, connection to future career
is low. Many employers do not recognize
the qualification of online courses.
Some subjects, such as writing
or designing, require people’s
feedbacks.
Students often learn alone,
difficult to know whether
they are wrong or not.
Even if they ask questions,
teachers aren’t required to
give feedbacks.

2.Low completion rate.
6. Solutions
We could send e-mails to those who
fail to meet the requirements, to
remind them of the importance of
learning.
Besides giving certificates to those
who finished the class, we should
make the value of them more known
to employers, allowing more online
learners to find jobs.
Since typing and videos has become
a form of communication nowadays,
we could build online discussion
rooms for each class, for students to
comment and upload their assignment
videos.
Also, we can give teachers incentives
to give feedbacks, for example, for
every problem teachers solved, the
website can give them $50 in return.
1.Lack of discussion. 2.Low completion rate.
