CONCEPT OF STUDENT PАRTICIPАTION IN ONLINE LEАRNING

Abstract

This paper explores the concept of student participation in online learning environments. With the rapid development of digital technologies and the shift toward virtual education, understanding how students engage in online platforms has become increasingly important. Student participation is not limited to attending online classes but includes interaction through discussions, collaboration, timely submission of assignments, and engagement in virtual group activities. The study analyzes the key factors influencing student involvement, such as motivation, accessibility, instructor support, and technological tools. Moreover, it highlights strategies to increase active participation and improve learning outcomes. The findings suggest that student-centered approaches, interactive content, and consistent feedback play a vital role in fostering meaningful participation in online learning environments.
