Educators play a crucial role in how they approach teaching and how they get students ready for real life in today’s society. They need to teach students a set of skills that will help them function as adapted and adaptable citizens that will eventually contribute to the growth of the entire society.
Whether you’re charged with supporting the learning of one online student or many, there is a way to make distance education not only effective but addictive. The key is to optimize the user experience, using gamification, social media, and customized content and interfaces to make distance learning fun.
Mindfulness-based intervention can improve cognitive performance, resilience, and mental health. It can also help students focus during lessons.

We are in a unique position where we can vividly recall the great things about school – especially the relationships and new worlds opened up by education – and to try to change the parts that were unhelpful and sometimes even harmful.
Using technology to set up an interlinked ecosystem between the school, students, and their parents, where there is regular communication and transparency, requires just a bit of effort at the beginning and the right platform to support this. However, doing this will make a positive difference for everyone involved.
How can we create that close connection between teachers and a group of students who learn online? Are there any precise rapport building activities we should rely on? Let’s explore a few ideas on how to build rapport with students online:
