As you know, e-learning courses are devoid of a physical presence, so a boring e-learning course might take a sledgehammer to the cognitive capacities of the learners. Unless you manage to get the attention of learners at the beginning or midway through the course, and sustain it till the end, they are bound to drift off at some point.

This can be achieved if you employ instructional strategies that bring a right balance of intellectual, emotional, and physical participation of learners in the learning process.
