Within the first weeks of EM203 I have learned how the digital age has impacted how we learn and has become a key focus in society today. It has been fascinating to learn about these theories/ learning skills and how that has integrated itself within the digital age. #EM203Robin

@FelcenE This course really opened my eyes when I read that multitasking is not beneficial when it comes to academic settings. I surely am risking healthy study habits due to multitasking!

Up till now EM203 has provided me a series of new approaches to learning in the digital age! With this, risk taking becomes necessary when it involves multitasking whether that be through my study habits or shifting through various media platforms. #EM203Robin

@em203nvarma I tried the knitting task which was also a foreign challenge for me! Quite frustrating at first but then very rewarding in the end. Three weeks into the course and we are already attempting such fun tasks!

Through the first 3 weeks of #EM203Robin, my favourite activity has been challenging myself with Sudoku. It was frustrating, unorthodox, and something that I’ve never fully completed before, but it felt accomplishing when I was done. Looking forward learning by doing some more!

@LindsayEM203 Hey! I also found the different theories of learning quite interesting. You made a very good point on how this information benefits our current situation due to the pandemic.

@EM203michael_ Same here! I just learned about these learning theories due to taking this course. These first few weeks were interesting and I hope the weeks to come would be even more interesting.

In the first three weeks of EM203 I have learned a lot about learning in the digital age. Last week I focused on the connectivism learning theory. Connectivism is a product of the digital age and has revolutionized knowledge and learning. #EM203Robin

@EM203Kashif Hey Kashif, it was an interesting topic for me as well. The way information can be portrayed using visuals and text can be expanded greatly using this platform. This does affect the way we learn more about things like social issues.

The past few weeks we covered topics about the digital age and how we learn. One of the topics i learned was multi media, i discovered effective ways of learning and understanding new concepts through text and visual explanations. #EM203Robin

This is the digital age where technology is predominant and the Internet is widely used. Online resources have impacted the way of learning and how people socially interact with one another. Did you know that the world's heaviest Internet users are Canadian adults! #EM203Robin
