Show learners you’re listening
Before a course begins, ask learners how they’re feeling about getting started. Turn their responses into a word cloud using Free Word Cloud Generator and share it back. It’s a simple way to acknowledge feelings, surface common themes, and start the course on a human note.
Learners don’t want robots. They want you.
