With the advent of technology into modern day life, it has become a basic to go online for almost everything. That does not exclude learning something online and, now-a-days online training is the topic of the industry because of its flexibility, convenience and customization. While many things are happening offline, growth rate of people getting online training is skyrocketing. This spike has something to do with the mobile adoption also, apart from access to internet. But still, everything will never go that smooth and easy and will have its own challenges and limitations. So today, to overcome the challenges of online learning and gain the maximum ROI (Return On Investment) out of the training, here are the few tips:
- Create a Foundation for your Brain:
Aspiring to become extremely productive while learning online is a worthy task but by performing everyday tasks and knowing how to plan it is also important as well, because these mundane tasks will become a hindrance at later stages. So, planning is important to gain knowledge through online learning as it will help focus on subject instead of day-to-day tasks. Planning doesn’t just mean in physical tasks, it needs to become a habit to your brain so that it will set the inner clock in such a way. Second part is, while learning online anything new, provide your brain with enough information that backs it up and that illustrates the information. This way, the understanding will be easy and simple and the new information acquired will always sits in your brain as you relate it to real life situations.
- Methods of Thinking:
Learning need not always be a one-way i.e you do not have to specifically do a focused learning. For instance, when you are studying some programming language like, Shell Scripting, there will be some standard methods and process for it to understand and learn, this is where you require complete focus. On the other hand, when you are learning something new or solving a riddle, focused thinking will not help, an out-of-the-box thinking and relaxed approach are required. When you lock yourself down to a single topic, that might not help solve the riddle, so we say it is a kind of diffused thinking which is also needed.
- Procrastination is a crime:
Not just while learning online, procrastination at any point of time in any situation is a real crime. Because, it drastically changes the plans and disturbs your whole day. Even a small of sign of nagging should be immediately acted on, as once you get distracted it will easy to get distracted time and again. You can overcome this by segmenting your tasks into small parts or breaking down of tasks. This will surely help gain control over procrastinating the tasks.
- Be consistent in your learning pace:
Realize about the real potential in you to understand at what pace you need to move forward. If you can take only 60 minutes class a day, just go with it. Contrary to that, if you are capable of only taking 60 minutes of training but you accept for 90 minutes will leave those +30 minutes as a waste. So, understand how much you can take and just go with the same pace.
- Time Tracking:
Never ever forget to track time because it is important to keep some trivial issues in check. Keep track of time always as to follow your plan as it. Maintain a time sheet to understand and analyze the efficiency and productivity on any given day.
