Too much screen time can lead to issues with students' bodies, brains, moods, and overall mental health. To combat these negative effects, teachers and students can balance the increased screen time with increased movement, meaning, and joy. #EM203

The issue I have chosen to analyze for #EM203 is the impact of online learning on mental health. If you would like to learn about this issue check out the link below! dailyorange.com/2020/10/online…

@EM203RMalcolm Hi Malcolm! I agree. I have just learned that I can follow educational accounts that provide valuable information that can help me with my career.

It feels as if taking #EM203Robin couldn’t have come at a better time! Learning in the digital age and using twitter as a platform is as important now as it’s ever been.

@EM203_Meredith Hi Meredith! Ever since grade 12, I started bringing my laptop to class and this has changed the way that I learn. When I am in class I am able to take notes as well as surf the internet for additional information.

So far in #EM203Robin I have explored the impacts of learning in the #DigitalAge. Not only has learning become more #collaborative, I am also seeing how I can become a more #active learner by incorporating #tech in my education. Looking forward to the rest of this course!

@Badarsahi0 Hi Badar! The evolution of the internet has provided us with so many ways to absorb information. I like to listen to podcasts and scroll through social media to get much of my information.

In the first 3 weeks of classes, I have learned a lot about the evolution of the internet and the process of learning itself. I also learned a lot about how technology has changed learning and the effects of multi-tasking while trying to learn. #EM203Robin

@hud_EM203 Hi Hudson! It is fascinating to learn about the different tools available and the impact it has on our learning.

These past few lessons have given a very unique insight into learning and how modules like the 3 M's display how it is our generation might learn most efficiently, and what tools we use to do so. #EM203Robin

Really interested in the notion of constructivist learning. It's exciting to understand how one individual will 'construct' one's own way of learning to further comprehend the knowledge they seek to learn. #EM203Robin

@em203slam Hi Serena! Thanks to the internet we have tonnes of information at our disposal and many different platforms that allow us to utilize our different learning styles. For example, I get lots of my information from listening to podcasts as opposed to having to read books/articles

@EM203bdenomme Agreed! I also use a "learn by doing" approach.

Really enjoying what we have learned so far in #EM203Robin. I have learned that I learn best using a "learning by doing" approach, along with little to no multitasking. I am excited to continue applying these theories to learning in the real world!

Over the past 3 weeks, I have gained a better understanding of how technology and the internet have changed the way that we/I learn. People now have the opportunity to learn what they want and how they want as a result of the different platforms available on the web. #em203robin
