Mass social isolation, constant lockdowns, quarantines, and restrictions led to mental agony for people around the globe. Schools got shut, and students shifted to virtual education. The shift led to compromised interaction and altered support systems. 

The situation has been nothing less than stressful for everyone to some extent. The change in lifestyles also added new stressors for everyone. A survey by EdWeek reports that 66 percent of high schools principals actively search for effective solutions to battle the increasing levels of anxiety, depression, and avoidance in students.

Another report by OECD reports that young people were more prone to report symptoms of anxiety or depression as compared to adults, by 30% to 80% in Belgium, France, and the United States during 2021. 

As for students between the ages of 13-29, UNICEF reports that 27% feel anxiety, and 46% report less motivation to do activities they used to enjoy across nine countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. 

While the global education community often highlights the need for resilience (i.e. the ability to manage, withstand and overcome cumulative shocks and stresses) globally, it is prime to think about the social-emotional stability students need during these times.

Here's a list of companies that have been working on student well-being.  

Rhithm

Based out of the United States, Jake Gannon and Josh Knutson found Rhithm in Feb 2019. The company offers a wellness check-in tool where students' response becomes the base for a 1-3 minute activity they must do. The activity aims to regulate the well-being of the student. The tool uses a short emoji assessment based on students' responses, and it offers a quick activity or video that'd help the student with the concern identified. The solutions also give access to teachers through their dashboards. Educators can look into any student's well-being report and get a clear picture of their well-being and how it might have impacted their academic and behavior outcomes. The tool covers mental, emotional, energy, physical parameters of well-being. 

imoves

The company focuses on creating brighter, healthier, and happier children by getting them active every day.
