@SimritSingh8 We love toronto!!

I love how Toronto is so inclusive and ensures that everyone feels important.

Climate change is expected to worsen over time and really hurt countries on a global scale. How exactly will this affect Canada? The following article presents the top risks we will face due to climate change: globalnews.ca/news/5460312/c…

This is a much more accurate way to test products and eliminates unnecessary animal suffering!

Why run tests on animals when other alternatives exist? In vitro testing on human cells can be done using "organs-on-chips" (left) which contain human cells that mimic how human organs and organ systems function.

It is evident to say that pollution is a problematic factor to our environment and something needs to be done about it! nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/p…

Our voices need to be heard! We cannot and should not accept these education cuts whatsoever. Speak out and fight for what is right! #LetsTalkEducation

Something as little as picking up garbage from the ground can go a long way for our environment. Let's prevent pollution and be #environmentallyfriendly !

Amazing! You can't let age limit your potential to succeed!

I think that one of the biggest problems facing our world now is the effects that climate change is having on our oceans and ocean-life. With the increased rates of garbage, oils and chemicals polluting our waters, all ocean-life is quickly become at risk of dying. #EM203Problem

@em203sdoyle Hey, when looking at your concept map I saw a very important connection between single-use plastics and convenience. I feel like this is the biggest barrier to reducing our single-use plastic consumption.

@AhnafRushab Hi Ahnaf, I completely agree with the statement you made about social media. It is really astonishing on how rapidly it's taking over and has integrated itself into several industries.

Over the past couple of weeks through the lessons I have learned the importance of digital technology and how everything is at ease of a touch away. I have also understood the different learning theories along with the significance of social media in modern times. #EM203Robin

@kaitlinpower Great tweet! It is crazy to think that everything anyone could want to know is at the touch of a button. We're very lucky to be growing up in a time like this as navigating school and the world is so much easier with technology.

The first 3 weeks of this course have really opened my eyes at just how much learning has changed within the digital age. We have access to information through the internet at our fingertips which allows us to quickly gain knowledge and insight through self-learning #EM203Robin

@EM203sbattaglia Hey Sophie! That was a very insightful tweet! I completely agree that university would be a lot different and even a challenge without technology and digital aids. I think I would have a hard time keeping on top of things without it.

These past lessons have allowed me to understand how easy it is to learn a new task with resources at our fingertips. Reflecting on the impact digital aids have had on my university experience, I realize how different my university experience would be without them. #EM203Robin

@Em203LaurenMac Hi, Lauren! Great tweet! This is also my first twitter account. Understanding how to use it has been a learning curb but it's been really exciting so far!

@NatalieZammit @PullaraJeremy Hi Natalie, I agree with what you said about cognitive learners. Personally, I am more of a visual learner. Pictures and diagrams make it a lot easier to understand concepts!

In Tony Bates' book, there is a theory of learning known as Cognitivism. According to Bates, this theory focuses on identifying mental processes and internal and conscious representations of the world. These together are essential for learning #EM203Robin
