5分钟阅读统计数据显示 2023年,近2200万成年人在家全职工作. Remote work rose in popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic with many companies hanging on to the model. 虽然这对许多人来说更方便, 远程工作需要的技能与传统的朝九晚五略有不同. Online learning may be able to help students develop these transferrable skills and better prepare for remote work opportunities in the future.
Transferable skills are those developed in one area that can be used in another. Many times, transferable skills are carried from a learning space to everyday situations. Online learners will see that the skills they use as part of their daily school lives can help them secure and be successful in future remote work opportunities.
There are several benefits of an online education that can make remote work easier.
在线教育的好处之一是学习时间管理技能. Taking classes online requires students to keep track of their assignments and class hours. While they are given solid due dates for assignments and are still required to attend school for a set number of hours each week—just like with remote work—online school students have more flexibility when it comes to completing their classes during the school day than students who attend classes in person. 如果学生不擅长 管理他们在其他活动和责任上的时间,他们可能无法按时完成任务.
Online learners have a leg up on the work-from-home competition because when people work from home, they are expected to be productive without having a supervisor next to them 24/7 checking to see if their work is getting done. A work-from-home employee needs to stay focused on their tasks and not become distracted by social media, 电话, 在家做家务, 或者其他可能导致工作效率低下的任务. 类似的, 在线学校要求学生积极主动, 哪些可以帮助他们为远程工作做好准备.
Being able to work with others in an online environment requires having excellent communication skills and self-awareness, as remote workers often need to collaborate on a project without being physically together. 幸运的是, this is a skill that online learners likely have already mastered before they enter the workforce. 当学生接受在线教育时, they are learning how to work as a team without having their teachers or classmates directly in front of them. Instead of waiting for someone to notice they may be struggling on a topic or if they need to collaborate on a project, online school students may feel more comfortable reaching out to others themselves.
远程工作需要许多与远程学习相同的技术技能. 在线学习者必须知道如何使用某些计算机程序, 日程安排工具, 能够在线聊天, 如果他们想要成功,他们知道如何分享重要的信息. 那些在家办公的人经常使用类似的平台,比如Google Meet, 松弛, 和Zoom来参加会议并与同事保持联系.
组织能力是在线学习的重要组成部分. 保持条理的一部分是保持一个足够的工作空间. 有组织的和适当的 国内课堂 能帮助你的学生在现在和未来的工作中取得成功吗. Whether it be a dedicated desk in the living room or a flexible workstation they set up each day, students who have experience learning from home are more likely to have already spent time perfecting the balance between work and living in the same space.
在线学习者看到工作与生活的平衡是多么重要. 他们知道如何给自己足够的时间来完成工作, 但也要有足够的停机时间,这样他们就不会精疲力竭. When people work from home it can be hard to draw this line because work is always there, 这使得人们很难确定工作日何时结束, 私人时间开始了. Online learners know how to enjoy the flexibility of at-home productivity and setting boundaries on their day so they can still have time for friends and family.
One of the benefits of an online education is that students can be anywhere and access their lessons online. 他们也可以在最专心的时候完成任务, 特别是如果他们在早上8点还没有完全清醒的话. This flexible schedule that online learners are using now can help them prepare for remote work since one of the benefits of remote work is that employees can live hundreds of miles away from their work headquarters and coworkers and still get the job done. While this may mean making some adjustments for people living in different time zones, those who have learned from home and have taken advantage of the flexibility online school offers, 会习惯于围绕他们的日常生活安排工作吗.
Remote work allows employers to save money on office space and recruit from a broader pool of applicants. Employees can enjoy a remote working schedule because they don’t have to worry about a commute and have greater flexibility. The benefits for both the employer and the employee have made remote work attractive to many.
