>> I'm Kevin Hall and a University of York,
Social Policy, Social Work.
I don't have any thoughts on time saving but,
I think on tutor behaviors, my tip would be to try
and build a relationship
with individual students early on in the module.
Share a little bit of yourself.
Try to tease out a little bit of their private world,
and try to build connections between the two.
And I think the more you can develop that relationship,
the more you'll develop a community.
>> Do you think there's a variation in how, say,
a traditional age, 18 to 21 year old student responds
to that dynamic versus say an adult learner
who might not have another community to practice with?
Are there differences, or do we both need,
would you say both target audiences still have that need
for connection in, in personalization?
>> I think it's probably more,
more important to the adult learner.
Who, who, who may be their, their studying is part
of their social world as well.
Whereas for the younger generation, it's, it's a means
to an end, if you like.
That's part of what they do before they move
onto something else.
With adult learners, study is often part
of what they want to achieve in life.
>> Yeah.
>> So, yes, I think it's different.
