The problem with online courses is that it is difficult to understand your specific personal reason for trying to learn something.
Creators design courses with particular outcomes in mind mainly because they do not have the resources or will to create separate courses for each possible motive.
It is not always fun to go through an online course where most materials do not serve your specific purpose. It is a hit-or-miss experience for the learners that their personal motivation and intended outcome of the course is compatible. This problem may be why online courses have a drop rate of around 40% to 80%.
