A learner can communicate with the course instructor throughout the completion of a course using several built-in features of the GSourcers e-learning platform.
1. Q&A and Discussion Boards
Many courses have a dedicated Q&A section or discussion board on the course page. This is the most common way to ask questions about lesson content, assignments, or quizzes. The instructor can then publicly answer the question, which can also help other students with similar queries.
2. Private Messaging
Some GSourcers setups include a private messaging system. This allows learners to send a direct message to the instructor from their profile or from the course page. This method is used for questions or issues that are personal and not relevant to the entire class.
3. Comments and Feedback
Learners can often leave comments on individual lessons. This provides a way to ask questions or give feedback directly related to a specific part of the course content. The instructor can then reply directly to these comments.
4. Live Class Interaction
If the course includes live lessons (via Zoom or another platform), learners can communicate with the instructor in real-time through the chat function or by speaking during the session. This is an immediate and direct way to ask questions.
5. Announcements
While not a direct communication channel, instructors frequently use the announcements feature to communicate important information to all students. This can include updates to the course, changes to the schedule, or responses to frequently asked questions from the class.
