> the importance of taking action, completing the course and using or implementing the information gained in order to maximize course value
I think this is definitely the biggest reason online courses get a bad rap sometimes. Either the course fails to show you how to implement what you just learned (and thus criticism of the course is understandable), or the person taking the course simply fails to implement what they’ve learned and then they’re upset because the “useless course” didn’t magically deliver success unto them just because they took it.
As it turns out, learning something really only helps you if you actually utilize what you’ve learned! 🙂
