This assignment asks for thoughts on the potential negative impact of online learning on social skills and mental health, as well as suggestions for how teachers can effectively teach students to use online tools for educational purposes.

 Thank you for your post this week. Although this new way of teaching has gained some popularity, what are your thoughts about whether the benefits of online learning and teaching have created another issue connected to social skills and how this may be negatively contributing to mental health? Relative to online learning and the new learning tools, what are your thoughts about how teachers can teach students how to effectively use these online tools and tech to become more effective and meet their educational goals? I have observed and experienced that learning how to navigate various school sites, libraries, and online tools such as Zoom, Google Docs, Google Scholar, etc., can be very overwhelming for some. What are your thoughts if the teachers are also struggling with learning how to utilize these tools and, therefore, cannot effectively teach students?
