This section focuses on the components and examples of course structure when teaching online. When I finished reading this paragraph, I noticed that the text pointed out that more and more people use “traditional online courses” to refer to closed courses, which indicates that people have regarded online courses as a new branch of educational models, so based on this, we need to study online courses as an important educational model. In general offline education, we summarize a lot of structural divisions, such as compliance with the course structure of each title is the core key to solving the problem, there is no superfluous content and interference, and each title content has its inevitable existence value. For the problem to be solved, the content contained in the course structure is sufficient and no additional content is needed. There is no repetition between the headings in the course structure, which is a requirement for the course key, and any repetition of the structure will lead the participants to question the rigor of the course content. I wondered if these principles also applied to the composition of the online course structure. Through my reading, I found that one instructor made it easy for students to collaborate online by incorporating the use of media with the encouragement of the instructor. Another teacher used a blog similar to ours to help students share their ideas with each other. I think I learned a lot and it helped me in my studies. I also learned how to better use these media to help with my learning by reading teachers’ thoughts on including them. One teacher gave students assignments by posting content such as posts and also included a forum to help students share their learning difficulties. All in all, I found this chapter to be very helpful in my subsequent learning, or imparting knowledge, especially for online courses.

I agree with you that online learning is an important mode of education, and that both online learning and face-to-face teaching should be important modes of education.
The article mentions that the structure of online teaching is Enrollment, Amount, Timing, Platform, and Pathway. I think the principles of offline teaching are hardly reflected in these parts, but will be reflected in the teaching process of online teaching.
I have the same idea as you, online learning has many advantages over traditional offline closed learning, so I hope I can make online learning the mainstream teaching method in the future
