Only a tiny fraction of single-use plastics are recycled, and the rest leaches toxins into our food and oceans, causing health issues. This is a crisis we can solve! Refuse single-use plastics to reduce our carbon footprint and protect marine life. #EM203Robin

I’m very happy to have the opportunity of taking EM203 at Wilfred Laurier University! This virtual class has been very fun thus far as we’ve had the chance to create comic strips, explore the world of X (Twitter), and discuss connectivism within my group. #EM203Robin

@EM203sabrinaliu Hi Sabrina, I would love to hear more about what you learned more in regards to the learning theory of Conectivism!

The first few weeks of this course provided a deeper understanding of teaching in the digital age. Discussing the learning theory of Connectivism last week, it coincided with the rise of digital networks in education. Can't wait for the rest of the course! #EM203Robin

@EM203mina Hi Ramina, I agree! Learning about the digital age is important, especially since we are all living in an era where technology is an ongoing innovation.

@EM203KaiBaba Very cool Kai! Would love for you to share with me what you think about connectivism and its importance.

@chin2657 Very cool Chris! Would love for you to share with me what type of news outlets you get your information from!

First lessons in EM203 have definitely shown me the benefits of using twitter, it has been extremely helpful with getting my news quickly. The discussion posts have been super fun to read through as well #EM203Robin

@justinleeEM203 Very cool Justin! Would love to do a sudoku puzzle with you one day!

EM203 has been a very different but engaging experience throughout these 3 weeks! I have been intrigued with learning about cognitivism in specific, and enjoyed solving the sudoku puzzle! Looking forwards to the next couple of weeks! #EM203Robin

The first 3 classes in EM203 have been very insightful about how we learn as well as how Twitter can be used as an effective news source. Discussion posts have also been interesting being able to see what others think about the course content. #EM203Robin
