Hello @mentalhealthph, I am a student at Wilfrid Laurier University. I was wondering if you would be willing to share your thoughts on ways/strategies that we can use social media to improve our mental health rather than destroy it.

As a fifth year student finishing her undergrad, most of my friends I made in first year graduated and have experienced mental health issues post graduation. I think its important for university students to read before or even after graduating! #EM203 snhu.edu/about-us/newsr…

Currently in the third week of EM203 and have been loving the course so far! Learning the ways in which various digital technologies and social media platforms can be of use for collaborative and creative learning. Excited for the rest of the semester! #EM203Robin

@EM203atse Hi Andrew, that is super impressive that you were able to knit that with chopsticks and I'm glad you included a picture for us to see, well done!

#EM203Robin has been an enjoyable first 3 weeks with lots of fun learning activities. I really enjoyed the challenge of learning a new skill this week - knitting! Here is an example of purl and knit stitch! Ps: knitting is easier with proper needles than chopsticks.

@EM203JHanna Hi! As we are moving through this course I have also enjoyed learning about the different ways we engage with online and digital learning as well as being able to make the connection to the real world

I have really been enjoying this course. So far, I have learned about a variety of learning theories, specifically focusing on experiential learning or learning by doing in which one learns skills by practicing them in a real-world setting or way. #EM203Robin

@EM203EStransky Hi Erin, it definitely has been interesting to explore the different learning styles and how they differ in an online environment. Like you, I also took interest in the learning theory of connectivism!

So far in EM203, we have acknowledged that people may learn differently in an online environment and that this generation of students is very connected to the internet. I also found it very interesting to study the learning theory of connectivism. #EM203Robin

@EM203ltomas Hi Lindsay, I agree the first three lessons have been quite fun and I am also enjoying the interactivity of this course!

Learning the first three lessons of EM203 has been very fun and interesting, as we have been working interactively each week, making me want to continue learning the concepts that are yet to come! #EM203Robin

@em203digiallon Hi Erica, I also have been having fun in this course and engaging in the learning theories for our digital age. I also chose to learn how to solve a difficult sudoku puzzle last week which was quite ambitious of me as I haven't even tried an easy puzzle before!

My first three weeks of #EM203Robin have been super fun! This course is super interactive and incredibly informative on the learning theories for our digital age. This week I learned how to complete a Sudoku puzzle! I can’t wait to expand my knowledge the remainder of this term!

These past three weeks in #EM203Robin have been very fun and engaging. I've enjoyed learning about digital natives, the different types of teaching and learning in a digital age, and even exploring how to do a sudoku puzzle! Looking forward to the rest of the semester!
