%X <span style=\"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;\">In this paper, the
author discusses two tenets of online learning: andragogy and learner engagement.
What are the foundational principles of these educational practices? In light
of the discussed foundational principles, the author examines various
techniques which educators could use in order to help online learners succeed
in the often-stressful environment. Ultimately, educators want learners to
reach the pinnacle of BloomĄ¯s Taxonomy pyramid; by following the suggestions
presented in this paper, educators will help learners accomplish this
objective. Yet, more research is needed in this area. Therefore, the
recommendation is for further study in the relationship between andragogy and
the varied mesh of ideas associated with meaningfulness and engagement.</span>
