Bridging the Gap: Mental Health Support for Virtual Students

Don't underestimate what it could mean to a young person for you to make small, frequent, just touches. Just reaching out, just checking in with you. Those things are incredibly powerful. The dose does not have to be big for it to be effective.
How do you keep a human connection alive in a virtual classroom? In this episode of the Arkansas A.W.A.R.E. podcast, Dr. Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Dr. Stacy Moore tackle this pressing issue. With the rise of online learning, educators are faced with the challenge of supporting students' mental health from a distance. The hosts bring their unique blend of expertise and humor to the table, offering practical tips that are both easy to implement and deeply impactful.
They discuss the importance of small, frequent touches—like sending postcards or setting up regular check-ins—to maintain that vital human connection. These strategies aren't just for the students' benefit; they help educators stay connected and prevent burnout too. Whether you're a teacher, parent, or someone interested in mental health in education, this episode is packed with valuable insights that can make a real difference.
