Online Learning Skill Development

Alan R. Roper appears to be quite clear in stating the purpose, methodology, findings, and conclusions of his article.

He introduces the work by describing exactly the needs in existing studies, along with how he intends to fill this need, and proceeds to do so in the article.

The author is very accurate. Online learning is a growing field in education today, and students are in need of strategies to attain success in this environment.

The author is sufficiently precise, specifically in the findings of his investigation. He describes in detail the responses of successful students, and helpfully divides these into seven different strategies that online educators can use to promote motivation and success.

There does not appear to be any irrelevant material in the article. After the brief introduction, the methodology section is long enough only to describe how the author will go about the study. The longest section is devoted to responses, followed by a focused conclusion.

5. The writing is by no means superficial, but also not over complex in terms of the subject matter. The requirements of the topic does not appear to involve greatly complex ideas.

6. The author only briefly considers other literature and perspectives to justify his own. Nevertheless, this does not appear to be a detrimental factor in terms of the article.
