@natasha_tracy Thanks so much for your reply! I think that we’re very lucky to have such advanced technology nowadays to keep us connected virtually through the pandemic

@CarlaEm203 It's a great time to take up yoga or simply practice stretching and breathing exercises. It's a great time to focus on self-care and self-expression. It's also critical to keep our connections -- even if they are virtual -- because those supports will help us through this. 2/2

Hey there @natasha_tracy ! I am currently doing some research about the impacts of COVID-19 on mental health, and seeing you're an expert I was wondering if I could ask you for some tips. :) What do you think is the best way we can manage our mental health during this time?

If you have been struggling with your mental health since the pandemic, do you think that attending a virtual mental health workshop once a week could benefit you?

Have you downloaded the COVID-19 app? It is amazing to see how our society was able to incorporate technology during these hard times. Being on our smart phones everyday, I think this is a great idea on how we can be more cautious and protect those around us. #EM203Robin

Bate’s Theories of Learning for a Digital Age, has helped me understand that learning is just as efficient beyond the classroom. As technology evolves, I am curious to see how different aspects of the classroom will be implemented into online learning #EM203Robin

@EM203Anniex I agree with what you said about how technology has made our lifestyle easier in certain ways. It's so helpful to use apps like Zoom and Google Docs to work on group projects this semester since we can no longer meet in person. However, I find it much harder to stay focused :(

The digital age is changing how we learn, with information accessible at our fingertips it is easier than ever to share, collaborate, and contribute to ideas. #EM203Robin

@merna_em203 I totally agree with you! I use online platforms all the time to educate myself on things like cooking, fashion and doing my makeup. I think that by other people sharing their knowledge on these topics online, I am able to learn things that I never knew before.

@EM203AdamV Hey Adam, I totally agree with what you said about digital media providing us many opportunities to retrieve info. This is so vital in our everyday lives, as we can even use social media platforms like LinkedIn to look for job postings for our future careers!

The first three lessons of EM203 have given us insight on various theories and concepts surrounding learning and the exchange of knowledge through online platforms. Digital media provides immense opportunities for acquiring and sharing information. #EM203Robin
