1.3.3 Provide online learning guidance

An open chat about good academic practices is as important in online courses as it is in classroom courses. The reason this is mentioned here is that with the increased availability of online resources, learners lacking confidence or experience may end up copying considerable amounts of material without giving the appropriate credits for it. Including some information about good academic practices and ways to further develop them goes a long way helping learners to feel more responsible for their acts and avoiding plagiarism.
