Tool to Build Meaningful Connections Between Teachers and Students

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative brings together educators, researchers, and product developers to build tools for educators that enable them to differentiate learning experiences equitably and foster strong connections with their students. One of these tools is the Along Teacher–Student Connection Builder that helps teachers develop meaningful connections with their students so that every student feels seen and known.

Designed in response to educators’ needs, and with support of researchers and practitioners, Along lets teachers and students check in, one on one, via quick videos, audio, or text messages, enabling students to open up about who they are and what is really on their minds, away from the pressures of their peers. Along is provided at no cost by Gradient Learning, a nonprofit organization founded and led by educators.
