Establishing and maintaining good and consistent communication is crucial to provide an e learning enivornment for the student.  Feedback  and counseling if needed is a needed to make a student be supported and achieve their goals.

Everyone likes and needs feedback, especially students. By providing feedback to synchronous and asynchronous interactions with students, they feel supported and motivated. This is evident in a better overall performance.
