• Offering sufficient support to help learners overcome the sensation of being overwhelmed – Example: teachers and facilitators can offer a feedback form inviting students to inform the teacher of possible learning difficulties and other challenges

• Transparency regarding tasks, learning outcomes and goals (one easy-to-navigate learning platform/environment per course)

• Maintaining good learner guidance by designing a logical course storyboard, including a regular structure regarding team meetings, tasks, and deadlines
• Requiring a manageable workload, e.g. three goals and outcomes for the week

• Accommodating students by openly addressing common challenges regarding online learning, such as related to technical support, navigation, digital literacy

• Aiming for greater flexibility in accepting different learner preferences while also encouraging learners to face challenges and thus gain empowering learning experiences

• Addressing individual learner needs and providing individual study arrangements for learners with difficulties (e.g. ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, narcolepsy)

• Creating a supportive atmosphere from the start (learners might be intimidated by the institutional context)

• Setting transparent parameters and providing safety in the parameters (code of conduct) 

• Organizing small teams to allow for good team support

• Importance of online socialization (regardless of age, particularly important at the beginning of a course)
