Engaging with students through the activity stream is a powerful way to provide support, encouragement, and accountability. Here’s how you can make the most of it:

Why Commenting Matters

• Every comment is logged as a "Check-in" in the LRM Sherpa, helping track student engagement.

• Positive and encouraging feedback reinforces student effort and motivation.

• Timely responses can help re-engage students who may be struggling or disengaged.

Best Practices for Commenting

✅ Acknowledge Achievements – Celebrate milestones like completing an app, earning a badge, or making progress on a goal.
✅ Encourage Consistency – Recognize effort, even if students are progressing slowly. A simple “Keep going! You’re making great progress!” can go a long way.
✅ Offer Guidance – If a student seems stuck, provide helpful tips or resources. For example, “I noticed you’ve paused here—let me know if you need any help!”
✅ Re-engage Inactive Students – If a student hasn’t logged in or missed deadlines, a gentle check-in like, “Haven’t seen you in a while! Let us know how we can support you” can help.
✅ Personalize Your Messages – Use the student’s name and refer to specific activities they’ve completed to show you’re paying attention to their progress.

By being active in the activity stream, coaches and instructors can create a supportive, engaging, and motivating environment that helps students stay on track! 🚀👏
