3 Tips for Engaging with Students Virtually
Here are some tips about engaging with students that EVERFI has learned from their experience of conducting successful virtual events.
Keep it Brief
We recommend that events are no longer than 30 minutes and include transitions that allow for two-way engagement (polling, etc.) to recapture students’ attention.
Make it Personal & Relatable
You may be the first person a student has met from a particular industry or from your career focus area. Share your personal story to expose students to your educational and career path. Feel free to share moments from your youth that helped lead you in the path you took. It may get them thinking about their own!
Enjoy Yourself & Have Fun
Working with students can be fun, thought-provoking, and unpredictable! It’s ok to say, “I’m not sure” if a student asks a question outside of your knowledge area or to joke about technical difficulties. Smile through those moments and be ready to shift topics based on student engagement, feedback, and interest.
