Dear RG scholars,
High academic standards and expectations are required in tertiary institutions. Students need to develop new skills to balance academic demands, a lot is expected from instructors too. As a result of these demands, it is common for students and instructors to experience stress related to academics. Please suggest ways of managing academic stress in higher institutions. Thank you.
The cause of stress might be different and might be only exaggerated by the additional pressure, so the root should be identified and treated accordingly.
Measures that can be taken to reduce academic pressure are:
Structuring the schedule in such a way that there is sufficient time for physical activity and other relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation. Also, the infrastructure of the institute must support these.
Secondly, a senior and a teacher should be assigned to the students for problem identification and solving. If the student fail to solve it on his own or after discussing with closed ones, he can head to these persons.
Also, a psychiatrist or psychologist should be attached to the institutes and they should conduct related discussions and address to such problems when students seek help.
Thanks and regards
