In the end, results proved that the nonverbal cues are missing in online learning hence the encoding and decoding process is affected, but students tend not to notice due to its cost-effectiveness and convenience.

To test these hypotheses, we applied chi-square test. Two hypotheses tested for that online medium of schooling significantly affects the encoding and decoding process of students and teachers and that convenience factors (i.e., time, cost and comfort) are worth ignoring in the absence of nonverbal cues. Elaborative encoding: The process of actively relating new information or knowledge to something already in memory. A sample of 260 students learning online education used for the study. This Research is conducted through a well-structured self-administrated questionnaire wherein each item measured in Likert scale. In this study, the limitations of online training with nonverbal communication barriers as the focal point.

But that is not to say that online learning education has no cons to its working. This medium does not come as a stunner since online learning education shields against the barriers of time and distance and other militating factors of online learning.

Online learning education is fast-growing as its tentacles cover virtually all countries of the world today. Non Verbal Communication, Online Learning, Encoding and Decoding of Messages EFFECTS OF ONLINE EDUCATION ON ENCODING AND DECODING PROCESS OF STUDENTS AND TEACHERS
