Best Practices for Students When Engaging In Distant Learning
1. Identify a study space: While online education is flexible, it's still important to designate a specific place to complete your work. Find one that's free of distractions, where you can focus.

2. Commit to a structured schedule: Online learning takes a great deal of focus, and managing your time is critical. Designate specific time frames to complete your schoolwork each day or week, and block off your calendar accordingly. If you work during the week, consider using a day during the weekend to finish.

3. Develop a mutual understanding with your support system: Surrounding yourself with family, friends and peers who motivate and encourage you can make a difference, but make sure you share with them what you need while engaging in online learning so that they can help you remain on track.

4. Connect with your teachers: Establishing a relationship, if you do not already have one, with your teachers and connecting with them during their office hours will help you with the learning activities. You will not be able to meet in person so it's important to connect with your teacher's to clear up any questions you have.
