In what way do instructors support WGU students?

Instructors play a pivotal role in supporting WGU students, primarily through personalized support and facilitating a deeper understanding of course content. This means that they are not just delivering material but actively engaging with students to clarify concepts, answer questions, and provide guidance that is tailored to the individual needs of each student. This level of support is essential in a competency-based education model, where understanding and application of knowledge are key to student success.

Additionally, the relationship between instructors and students fosters an environment where learners can seek help specific to their challenges, promoting a more effective educational experience. This interaction and support are especially important in an online learning format, where direct classroom engagement is limited.

While other choices focus on aspects of course delivery or management, they do not capture the comprehensive support that instructors provide in terms of both academic guidance and fostering a supportive learning environment.
