Help students create a link between content and their lives
The importance of Build Connections
Creating stronger connections within the classroom contributes to a healthier learning environment, where students feel free to learn and express their thoughts openly.
Building positive connections to learning instills value in the content, as well as fostering social belonging in the classroom. Both of these outcomes have been shown to produce positive academic result for students across the board.
