In the past, if you had difficulty thriving in a traditional school, your parents travelled a lot, or you were a child actor, you had the option to study online. Post-Covid, that approach is growing in popularity. 

On this week’s episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross and Nahdia are joined by Cambridge Assessment’s Matt James to hear his insights into online education. We discuss: 

• Techniques for engaging children in online learning 

• Building social connection and managing wellbeing online 

• How lessons from online schools apply to workplace learning.
