Challenges of online courses

The challenges of modern society are increasingly complex, and human action is supported by technology in all areas of work. Great technological advances have also affected education, which aims to prepare students for active action in the modern community. Online learning has been developing in the world for years, and today it is available to everyone and is used every day, not only in the teaching process, but also in extracurricular and self-initiated learning. Online learning encompasses all scientific disciplines and is accessible to almost all segments of society. There are numerous advantages of online learning, such as raising the quality of educational content, availability of materials, facilitated application of educational materials, multimedia learning tailored to specific needs and ways of learning. Online learning often involves the acquisition of content at a distance and is a very effective way of learning since it is not limited to a specific time and space, and can include a larger number of students. Multimedia is one of the advantages of online learning because it involves the connection of visual, auditory and audio-visual content, facilitates the understanding of abstract and complex concepts and positively affects memory and motivation to learn. Digital educational technology affects the motivation of students, but also the motivation of teachers, who facilitate the work and transfer of knowledge. To prepare for online teaching, it is important to constantly develop digital competencies of lecturers, in order to avoid possible negative aspects of online learning and multimedia in non-lifelong learning. The aim of this paper is to point out the positive and negative aspects of online learning and the impact of technology on motivation and facilitating the adoption of new content.
