Online teaching has become a more common way to learn in college settings for the past 10 years therefore, curriculum designers must evaluate the best ways in which to deliver information and assure student knowledge in an online form. Various methods of teaching are known- analytical, episodic, narrative, which provide different advantages and disadvantages. They differ on the basis of discussions and include factors such as discussion initiation, maintenance and assessment. Chickering's seven principles of good practice are used to design courses and the usefulness of each principle and suggests ways in which the principle can be implemented effectively. In an online forum, other efficiency determining factors have been discussed, which include communication, flexibility, feedback, quality of course content among adapting to student needs.
