For most online courses, participation is mandatory. In an on-ground class, particularly a large one, you can go an entire semester and not say a word. In an online class you typically have to participate in discussion threads weekly, responding to both instructor questions and responses/questions from other students.

Many of us are susceptible to some level of procrastination, which can be a killer in an online environment. When the schedule of school work is entirely up to you it can be tempting to wait until the last minute. An online course is certainly more flexible, but it can also require much more discipline than an on-ground version.

Some learners don’t do as well without the tactile, real-time component of a ground course. The ability to get real time feedback on difficult subjects, eg. stats, can be important to some people. Others see the value in having the learning flexibility that online can provide.
