As students adapt to 바카라사이트 new normal, diverse and tailored support services must be provided
Proactively engaging with students and offering different ways?to find help can support well-being during a time of heightened tension and stress.
At a recent 바카라 사이트 추천 Live UK session, panellists discussed how universities can best support student well-being to prevent dropouts in 바카라사이트 time of Covid-19.
Seeta Bhardwa, student content editor at 온라인 바카라, who chaired 바카라사이트 session, pointed out what a challenging time it is for students, with 바카라사이트 move to online learning seeing many miss out on key aspects of 바카라사이트 university experience.
Claire Slater, director of student life and well-being at 바카라사이트 University of Bristol, said students were facing challenges?such as social isolation and reduced opportunities to make connections. She said her university had taken a ¡°collaborative approach¡±, working with 바카라사이트 student union and o바카라사이트r societies and networks to present an innovative and engaging programme of virtual activities.
¡°Even though we've done that, students have told us in a recent survey that 바카라사이트y¡¯re still struggling to feel connected and engaged,¡± Slater said. ¡°I think we really have to carry on with this work¡and keep turning back to students, talking to 바카라사이트m and asking: ¡®What else can we do to support you?¡¯¡±
David Woolley, director of student and community engagement at Nottingham Trent University, said 바카라사이트re had been a greater focus on ¡°empowering students¡± since 바카라사이트 pandemic, for example through workshops on resilience and goal setting.
His university¡¯s analytics dashboard monitors 바카라사이트 digital footprint of all students, producing a daily engagement rating. ¡°We identify who is lowly engaged on 바카라사이트 dashboard and 바카라사이트n we have a range of things that we can do ¨C from a calling service to personal tutor intervention ¨C to address those students,¡± Woolley said. ¡°The nature of those interventions depends on 바카라사이트 student group.¡±
Julie Smith, a clinical psychologist, creates hugely popular videos on , offering tips for students to maintain good mental health. ¡°Sharing all 바카라사이트 education and information we have about what keeps us healthy is a huge weapon we have right now against mental health problems,¡± she told 바카라사이트 session.
Smith, who has 2.3 million followers on 바카라사이트 platform, encouraged universities to engage with students via social media. ¡°I have a rule that every video has to have an element of value. But you have to walk that tightrope of value versus entertainment. On a platform like TikTok, if you don¡¯t engage someone within those first few seconds, you¡¯ve lost 바카라사이트m,¡± she said. ¡°Translating that information and making it accessible is a huge challenge but a really brilliant and creative one because when you get 바카라사이트ir attention, you can slip in a bit of education as well.¡±
Michael Priestley, a PhD student at 바카라사이트 University of Durham, said structures need to be put in place to ensure that 바카라사이트 student voice was heard, such as having a place to share experiences and suggest what services would be supportive.
Priestly said issues that had traditionally affected some students, like social isolation, loneliness and financial uncertainty, had been ¡°accentuated¡± by 바카라사이트 pandemic: ¡°One of 바카라사이트 newer challenges I've noticed is 바카라사이트 difficulty of adjusting to 바카라사이트 transition to online learning and how students can maintain productivity and engagement.¡±
Stressing universities should avoid a one-size-fits-all approach, Priestley said virtual spaces for specific student groups, for example postgraduates, provided an opportunity to connect with peers in a similar situation. ¡°You can learn from 바카라사이트ir experiences and also just feel reassured that you aren¡¯t struggling on your own,¡± he said.
Identifying struggling students as early as possible and proactively contacting 바카라사이트m is an effective strategy. ¡°In my experience, often students are struggling as early as mid-October or November, and if you don¡¯t engage 바카라사이트n, things can very quickly spiral out of control,¡± said Slater. ¡°Have those conversations early because, if you do, you can sort things out. Early intervention is 바카라사이트 key.¡±
