Students are often in an asynchronous environment, making online learning difficult, especially for students who are working to catch up on credits in order to graduate on time. This is why support through one-on-one coaching provides opportunity for learners to gain clarity where they are struggling and confidence in their schoolwork. Building a foundation can offer the support students need to succeed. Building a sense of connection to one's community, both inside and outside of the classroom, is an important way for students to feel a sense of belonging. Providing opportunities for online discussions and solving education problems is a great way to get students involved in the issues that matter most. As mentioned, connections and feeling safe are so important to students as they work toward their education. Mentoring is a great way to take things one step further. When students know they are accountable to themselves and have one person looking out for them, they feel special and important. When taking personalized learning into consideration, schools can always take it one step further by offering online credit recovery. Online learning and career development offers opportunities for students to remediate or accelerate their learning and improve graduation success. Bentley concluded, "To get started, the Knobull online standards-based Graduation Success assessment designed to benchmark students, helps them get a clear picture of the critical success factors that impact their chances to graduate."
