Overcoming challenges as an online learner

I consider being and feeling alone as my biggest challenge as an online learner. As online learners, we often do assignments alone, we study alone and even take our exams alone. While I truly love the fact that I can follow this study while having a fulltime job and a freelancing career, I sometimes do miss just sharing experiences with my classmates in a “real” non-virtual world. Human contact helps a lot especially in stressful times.
