This article is written very passively and awkwardly. It is best represented with the following statement: "In using courage, compassion, and connection when communicating with students, it reduces perceived stress and enhances the student experience while also improving the teacher-student relationship." Oh! for a good editor. But I link to it because it raised a question in my mind: in the rush to move back to traditional in-person classes, how are we going to deal with the sudden loss of connection that students will feel? Is the physical presence of a teacher in a classroom going to be enough to replace the always-on instant connection students can experience when online? When a student experiences anxiety or depression in an in-person class, how are they able to reach out for help when they have no access to messaging?
