As we rushed online, did student welfare get lost in transition?

It is unfortunate that this is the case for many students around the world. Many students don’t want to utilize their camera and share their personal home life with school. This distinct blurring between school and home life is stressful for many students. It’s also refreshing to see people who don’t agree with the concept of the ‘digital native’ generation. I am part of this generation and find it very stressful and uncomfortable to have new technology thrown at me with little to no guidance on using it. As Covid and distance learning continues, I hope universities will bring themselves up to date on online safety and support measures for mental health.
