@BowmanClimate I am interested in your thoughts on the best way to tackle climate change? More specifically, air pollution, seeing that it is a leading cause.

Going Out? Take Action Now. Only YOU can help flatten the curve to keep many people safe. Try to distance yourself from contact with anyone for 14 days! #EM203Robin #EM203problem #EM203solution

These are simple ways that the government and citizens can fight air pollution!

Brazilian football great Ronaldinho has been cited by Paraguayan officials over alleged possession of altered passports, according to a police report obtained by ESPN Brasil.

Very basic steps to protect yourself from COVID-19 !

Learning is more complex than one may think. As individuals, humans tend to lean towards a learning style that best suits them and their own cognitive ability. Each style is based on a learning theory and can incorporate different approaches to learning. #EM203Robin

@Msalvador_em203 An issue regarding your concept map is the increasing popularity of screen time among youth and the decreasing interest in participating in physical activities leading to obesity! #EM203problems

@em203lcharron an issue that I see regarding your concept map is the conflict between profit and being environmentally sustainable. Industrial companies often consider profit above being environmentally conscious leading to choices that have negative impacts on the environment.

@EM203MMammo @em203owhite Monique, do you know other types of dances? If so would you mind sharing if you found the tango more or less difficult to learn!

Reading about different learning styles has deepened my understanding of how broad the subject of learning can really be. My favourite activity so far was learning how to tango! #EM203Robin

@SophieEm203 I agree Sophie, It was interesting to learn that there are different theories as to how humans learn!

So far I have learnt some very interesting lessons in EM203, I had the opportunity to explore Connectivism and learn about how we can learn from networks and making associations. I also had the opportunity to learn a new skill of solving Sudoku puzzles! #EM203Robin

@Cameron89959510 Hi Cameron! Did you find that attempting to pronounce the German words was more difficult than you expected?

This week I attempted the challenge of learning Edelweiss from The Sound of Music in German. #EM203Robin

@EM203Megan Do you think that the type/genre of music could have an effect on the amount of interference with the cognitive task?

Playing music while doing chores is fun, but while studying, multi-tasking might lead to less learning and more forgetting! Doing 2 cognitive tasks at once isn't recommended as one is bound to suffer in quality. #EM203Robin

@EM203MAdlakha I couldn't agree more Mehul! It was very interesting to see the effects of multi tasking when studying.

With the first few lessons, I've learned the power of networking! I've also learned that multi-tasking isn't efficient and effective as it decreases the quality of your performance on at least one task; it's better to stay focused on one task and move on once done! #EM203Robin

These past two weeks I have learned about learning theories and multi-tasking! It has expanded my knowledge about the way we learn! #EM203Robin
