This module really emphasized how important strong and trusting relationships are to student success, especially in online or virtual learning spaces. I learned that building a working alliance where students feel supported, understood, and guided is key to keeping them engaged and helping them stay on track. In one of my roles, I plan to apply this by being more intentional about early check ins, making myself consistently available as a point of contact, and encouraging teachers to focus on empathy, responsiveness, and clear communication with students. It is a reminder that every interaction can help students feel more connected and less isolated.
It’s important to be humble in our communication with students and not authoritative. Show empathy but also provide clear and consistent communication regarding the expectations of the course.

I learned that student retention is closely tied to how engaged faculty are with their students. When students have consistent, meaningful, and positive interactions with faculty and staff, they are more likely to persist i their education. I also realized that students shouldn't be viewed as customers; instead, the role of educators is more like that of healthcare professionals focused on guiding and supporting students toward success.
I learned that retention is proportionate to student engagement by faculty. Students who have frequent meaningful and positive contact with faculty and staff are more likely to stay. I also learned that students are not customers, that education is similar to the healthcare profession in that they help the student.
Establishing strong working relationships with online students is essential for improving their academic success and overall outcomes.
It is important to be intentional with these students so that they will communicate with you and build that relationship that will help them be successful.
