Abstract

"Faculty need to consider the influence of the virtual classroom as a setting where factors related to social determinants of health enhance a sense of safety, security, and well-being. Incorporating concepts from the social determinants of health are critical to creating a positive learning experience (Porter, et.al, 2020). Quality of the learning environment is enhanced by the kind and number of interactions, as well as the resources available to students and faculty alike. Critical to academic success of the student is faculty’s knowledge of the variables that impact learning, including culturally diverse student backgrounds, home environments, and resources available (Thornston & Persaud, 2018; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2021). In this presentation we will explore the complex factors that may impact the life of our students and the numerous methods for faculty to develop connections with students in the online learning environment. Consequently we will suggest interventions that provide a supportive and personalized experience so students can achieve their goals. "
