In a time where we don't know who are those that are infected by the coronavirus, and those who are not, it is beneficial to just stay home for a while and refrain from having direct contact to anyone even to your friends. Given this reason, governments nowadays are choosing virtual classes rather than going to physical schools for students to be able to cope with their studies.
Since attending to these online classes would probably be a part of the norm for a while, the students need to know how to do well with their lessons effectively and efficiently even at home. To help them with that, here are some of the things they should do.
KEEP THEIR STUDY AREA CLEAN AND TIDY
In a study conducted in 2011, neuroscience researchers were able to find the link between a tidy workspace and increased productivity, better focus, and brain efficiency, as reported by the RACGP Organization. Backed up with the results of their study, these experts encourage people to clean and tidy up their place if they want to become more effective and efficient. And this also goes to those students who want to do well in their online classes.
INFORM THEIR FAMILY ABOUT THEIR PLANS OF STUDYING AT HOME
Informing their family of their plans to study at home and its schedule is very crucial. Letting them know all these things can assure the student of his privacy and peace whenever he is attending his class. The lesser the distraction, the more they can focus. The more focused they are, the more their productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness will improve too, as reported by The Economist.
NEVER FORGET TO REWARD THEMSELVES
Studying at home is never easy. So rewarding oneself after a job well done after class is also important. Doing so may seem fancy, but it could benefit the student more than you think.
Giving a student reward can help in motivating him to pursue his online class no matter how hard it could get. It could also give him the affirmation he needs to go on and keep embracing education. Furthermore, it could also help him in setting more goals in the future.
So why not encourage them to embrace a delicious snack after class? Or maybe drink a cup of sweet juice while watching an amazing show on Netflix? Keep that student happy and he would surely be excited to attend his online class once again.
