@plasticfreemeuk reaching out to an expert in regard to reducing plastic intake, what habit do you suggest individuals adapt to reduce their amount of plastic use?

"when obstacles are removed and students are given the resources to thrive, and when families and neighbours are meaningfully included in school communities, all students learn more" #EM203Robin #LetsSolveThisEducationProblem

These are 6 simple ways to reduce single use plastic so less waste is entering our oceans! For more information visit the link in the bottom right corner, all photo credits go towards that account!

Plastic waste in oceans continues to harm the marine ecosystem, an organization that focuses on repairing the harm plastic has caused to the oceans is the @MarineMegafauna foundation. More information on the foundations work can be found at marinemegafaunafoundation.org/our-work/

@EM203VictoriaT A problem I see in relation to your topic "Global Warming" is lack of government intervention and priorities when it comes to saving the environment and reducing pollution for a better future #EM203problems

@em203janechong A problem I see in relation to your topic of "Environmental Issues: Global Warming" is lack of communication of the dangers that global warming within communities, education systems and governments.

EM203 has broadened my perspective regarding learning in a digital age. Using platforms, such as MyLS and Twitter, our class is able to discuss our opinions, share and expand our knowledge, and discover different ways of learning in this connected world. #EM203Robin

@Em203Shania I like your perspective on the online community because online communities allows people to connect and even create an environment for learning such as this course!

So far, EM203 has taught me a lot and I hope to learn more interesting stuff. I really enjoyed learning about Connectivism and how it can be used for online learning. I like how it creates an online community because in today's society it is all about technology! #EM203Robin

@TT4230 I agree, technology has been a great aid to those who have different learning styles, as well as a very effective form of teaching!

@AhnafRushab digital technology has made accessing school resources and overall platforms much easier and more efficient, it would be very effective if the education system fully utilized digital technology!

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

@ToewsHouston With the aid of technology, our ability to further expand our prior knowledge on topics we already know helps us bring clarity to new things and continue our learning.

Something especially memorable I have learned is regarding the learning theory connectivism. It is not possible to "learn everything" there is to learn. Advancements within technology allow the learner to continue to read new things about any given topic. #EM203Robin

@SchwantzBrianna I like your point on the use of social media platforms in order to expand our knowledge, and further develop opinions-very insightful!:)

My first 3 weeks into EM203 have helped me understand that this generations youth uses technology less creatively than before, the true definition of cognitivism and that as convenient as interactive technology is, multi-tasking can negatively affect one's learning #EM203Robin
