This topic emphasized the importance of technical assistance in supporting learners during online training. I learned that technical support ensures that learners can navigate online platforms, use digital tools effectively, and overcome technological challenges that may hinder participation.
Examples include guiding learners on how to log in to online classes, upload assignments, access digital resources, or troubleshoot connectivity issues. I also learned the value of providing simple tutorials, help desks, or FAQs to assist learners quickly.
This topic helped me realize that technical issues can negatively affect motivation and performance; therefore, trainers must ensure that learners receive prompt and reliable technical help. I also improved my digital literacy skills, which are vital for facilitating online and blended learning environments.
