How to affect online education to the mental health of students?

Online education has grown in popularity, but students are using it to escape for mental health issues. Online education is a blessing and a curse; the degree it offers to students is substantial, but it can also be used as an escape by those who face mental health issues. For online educators, this presents a unique challenge of how to balance personal and professional life while balancing student needs. The key lies in creating healthy relationships with teaching students that support them when they need support and are understanding of their difficulties. Educators have to set their own boundaries. This is hard for online educators, especially because they are separated by a computer screen from the students they work with. Online educators can be tempted to try and help their students through email or other means of contact. This can be over-stepping a boundary, but it also makes people feel like there needs to be an immediate answer or solution. Educators need to take time if they feel like too much is going on in their personal life. Online educators need to take care of themselves, too. When someone has a great deal of responsibility it can be easy for them to forget about themselves until they finally collapse from exhaustion. Online educators need to watch out for signs of burnout. When signs show up, they should take time off or delegate tasks to others, if possible. Taking time off also allows someone’s perspective to be changed about the situation at hand. It gives people a change to vent their feelings and feel refreshed before trying again. An online educator needs to allow others to help them heal themselves, too. This doesn’t mean that they should let people walk over them or manipulate them into doing what they want them to do. They just shouldn’t be afraid of getting help from others when it is needed for them. Online educators need to be aware of the many people who are in their lives. Some students may only see the online educator as an adult figure, and an online educator needs to make sure that they don’t see their role that way. It is important to get to know students personally and to make them feel comfortable sharing personal information. Students need structure in their lives. Structure helps them when they have difficulties feeling safe or secure in life. If students don’t know where they will end up after school, are having trouble with family issues, have a hard time making friends or are dealing with mental health issues it can be easy for them to fall further into those problems and let them take over their lives.

What is the true meaning of lesbians?

Lesbians. The word evokes many different emotions for many different people but what is the true meaning of lesbians? To start, it was believed to be translated from French as "laies," which means "female who loves women." In the early 20th century, it defined a woman with a propensity to bond with other females. This inclination is usually displayed through heterosexual relationships. The definition did not stop there: There are also lesbian feminists as well as gay men and lesbian males that identify as lesbians. In more recent years, scholars such as Kate Bornstein and Michel Foucault have expanded the meaning of lesbians to encompass various identities that are un-defined by sexual preference or gender identity. Although in the '70s and '80s, it was popular to identify as lesbian and to have a sexual relationship with another woman, it has since broadened to include gender-fluid individuals, bisexuals, and transgender individuals. Nowadays, t...
