“…The idea is the same for the noise variable as well. Lenz et al (2021) found that noise disrupted students' concentration while doing cognitive tasks like math. Online students have the same challenges, owing to the increased level of background noise and other distractions at their residences.…”

The Coronavirus outbreak disrupted the global economy and human social activities, including schooling. Because of the worldwide school closure, face-to-face lessons have been stopped. Students desire to participate in real-time online learning was not well understood when the Coronavirus outbreak occurred. Despite this, there has been a progressive return to face-to-face education accompanied by online learning after more than two years of the COVID-19 pandemic. This international survey assessed students' readiness for live online learning using technology rather than the more traditional online/internet self-efficacy scale. This study is needed because of the COVID-19 outbreak (dependent variable). Three hypotheses were substantiated with the partial least square method to develop a structural equation model containing all four variables. Students' grades were shown to be directly influenced by factors such as temperature, lighting, and noise. Three distinct elements influence university students' long-term viability (human resources). Males and females were found to have no statistically significant differences. We contend that during the Coronavirus pandemic, the gender disparity in learning was minimized because students were pushed to take greater responsibility for their education. Educators utilizing live online learning, particularly those educating students at various educational levels, can benefit greatly from this research. Students pursuing lower-level degrees should be encouraged to engage in more virtual activities and student-to-student relationships.

“…School counselors are tasked with fostering student resilience as well as increasing other internal capacities (Lenz et al., 2021; Roche et al., 2020; Zyromski et al., 2022). A growing number of studies have evaluated the effectiveness of ASE‐informed social‐emotional learning (SEL) interventions aimed at improving the internal capacities of students to overcome adversities and improve their success in schools (Bowers et al., 2022; Ceballos et al., 2021; Lemberger‐Truelove et al., 2018; Lemberger‐Truelove et al., 2020; Webb et al., 2019).…”

Social determinants of mental health (SDOMH) are conditions in which students live that significantly contribute to their mental health challenges. School counselors can utilize the Advocating Student‐within‐Environment (ASE) theoretical lens as a liberation approach to strengthening students’ capacity to overcome persistent adversity while addressing root causes of systemic oppression through policy change and advocacy at the school, community, and national levels. School counselors can use increased personal awareness of the oppressive nature of SDOMH and the bidirectional approach offered by ASE to influence systems and students through preventative programming and proactive advocacy to affect institutional change. This study provides school counselors with an overview of ASE as a theoretical foundation for addressing SDOMH in schools.

“…School counselors can instill hope leading to resilience by helping students connect with other local youth or adults engaged in efforts to mitigate risks to the environment and address the psychological and emotional stress associated with climate change. Implementing these positive psychology constructs such as hope and resilience into the school counseling vision and mission statements can also help create a positive school climate (Lenz et al, 2021). Pajares's (2006) work on self-efficacy emphasized the value of vicarious experiences of youth in observing social models (parents and teachers) or peers (those with similar abilities) successfully identifying and completing tasks.…”
