Study from Home is the New Normal

Study from Home is the New Normal
We are here to talk about the latest trend among students called study from home, which is the new normal. But, the definition of “normal” has changed drastically in 2020. From the perspective of a student, life in general has taken a new turn. Schools and universities had closed down after the first wave of lockdown. This had led to students turning to study from home. Online learning had taken a new step in the spotlight as going out to attend tuitions was not an option. Thanks to technology, students have access to multiple online learning programs. After the lockdown was lifted and educational institutions reopened their doors, a new system was set in place by most of them. Only 30-50% of the students were to attend classes physically whereas the rest were to attend the classes online and study from home. In order to maintain physical distancing and prevent the spreading of the virus, this was a crucial step and eventually became a catalyst for online learning methods.
Timetable for Study from Home

Have your own Study from Home Space

Get Proper Study from Home Furniture
Considering the fact that a student will study from home for at least 3-4 hours a day, it is important to have comfortable study furniture. Try to get yourself an ergonomic table and chair that will help you focus without facing any discomfort for long hours. A bad chair or a table that is too high or too low for you can lead to physiological problems over time, such as neck pain, back pain, lumbar issues, etc. To avoid such problems, make sure your study from home furniture suits your study style.
Ensure Presence of Adequate Lighting
Studying in low or inadequate lighting can put strain on your eyes. Ideally, your study from home space should have access to natural lighting during the day time and the presence of adequate artificial lighting for the evening. Avoid studying in low light as by doing so you will be over working your eyes which over time can create macular issues for your eyes.
Add a Biophilic Element
A biophilic design when added to a study from home space can have a multitude of benefits for students, both physiological and psychological. Firstly, it makes the space more attractive which will encourage you to spend more time at your study table. Introducing biophilic elements can also help improve cognitive thinking, enhance your mood and also reduce stress. Eventually, this will help students increase their productivity and maintain physical and mental wellbeing during study from home.
