Paper Abstract:
|
This paper examines online learning from the perspective of management. Millennials have been found to possess
certain common characteristics that make managing them effectively different from preceding generations. We have
taken the principles for managing millennials and used them to interpret how online classes ideally should be structured
and what techniques should be used to make them successful for millennial students as a whole. This technique has
identified certain issues that exist in current methods of online education. We suggest areas that require future research to
determine better solutions to these issues. |
