Online Learning for Cat People.
Online learning is not easy – for students OR teachers.
And now we have a pandemic to deal with, too.
Clearly, we need a gentler approach to online learning.
So our information is delivered by cats.
You might think that cat videos are fun, but a waste of time.
The research says that’s not true.
One study found watching cat videos could:
- Boost energy levels
- Increase positive emotions, and
- Decrease negative feelings.
Another article concluded that cat videos could be a useful form of stress management and self-care.
Could we apply these benefits to an online learning setting?
Absolutely. Try it for yourself…
