There have been five hate crimes perpetrated against Asian Americans in NYC alone since the coronavirus crisis began. Trump's ignorant rhetoric is dangerous because it stokes racial fear and violence. Call it out. Don't let it stand.

Please don’t go to Ezra. If you spread COVID19, you endanger and harm others and become partially responsibly for their pain, suffering, and death

@GrantTweets Any particular reason for early April?

Sitting at home in Canada, very interested in how CoronaVirus will unfold in the coming months. I predict the vaccine will be out by early April. #EM203Robin

Government of Canada’s recommendations for Coronavirus: - Masks not needed of healthy - Wash your hands properly - Sneeze in your ELBOW

To stop the #coronavirus the @WHO says “wash your hands” We can all hug with consent or fist bump instead of shaking hands, use sanitizer and soap, don’t bite nails or rub eyes, and - I cannot stress this enough - DON’T BE A F-Ing RACIST! We are ALL in this together.

@GrantTweets @em203mjeffery @EM203Boston @OliviaGilbert99 @JennaLazarou @JacobWEM203 Thank you so much! I greatly appreciate this.

@EM203Megan @em203mjeffery @EM203Boston @OliviaGilbert99 @JennaLazarou @JacobWEM203 I think you could explore issues in the economics of health. For example, the supply and demand of health care, and the effect it has on costs.

EM203 Concept Map: Health

@EM203Boston For your concept map, a problem related to mental illnesses is the stigma related to mental illnesses and their legitimacy which prevents people from seeking treatment. Also dementia is sometimes considered a disorder, not an illness. #EM203problems

@AltimariJason Yes! Instrumental music probably has less of an effect since you aren’t distracted by lyrics and whatever genre is easiest to tune out for the person will most likely have less interference.

@EM203Megan Do you think that the type/genre of music could have an effect on the amount of interference with the cognitive task?

Playing music while doing chores is fun, but while studying, multi-tasking might lead to less learning and more forgetting! Doing 2 cognitive tasks at once isn't recommended as one is bound to suffer in quality. #EM203Robin

@EM203ShirleyTa It was so interesting to learn about the various types of learners! Before I had only thought of the three basic types: kinesthetic, auditory, and visual but now I know of subsets and their examples like learning by doing with experiments and apprenticeships.

EM203 has taught me that there are multitudes of various types of learners that require specific teaching methods for optimal success. The interactive and collaborative learning styles of this course are indeed engaging and helpful. #EM203Robin

@EM203christinee It is both interesting and important to re-examine how we learn in this new digital age while learning about what is most effective and reflecting on our own habits. I enjoy being able to directly apply the content we learn in EM203 into our lives!

EM203 is a course that participates in changing the learning landscape like how the internet has. It is an online course that I enjoy actively learning in as it calls for us to re-examine the way we learn as learners in digital age. Looking forward to future lessons! #EM203Robin

@KyleEM203 I agree! While the internet provides the temptation of unhelpful multi-tasking, it is also a treasure trove of resources like practise quizzes, interactive maps, and information that previously would have been difficult to access such as journal articles across the world.

The last three weeks has taught me how much technology is changing the way we learn. The internet has expanded learning from basic textbooks to a plethora of information available online in a variety of sources. This has changed how we learn through the 3M process. #EM203Robin

@JacobWEM203 Education for each platform would be helpful, but unfortunately at the rate (at least in ON) that the education curriculum is updated, some platforms become obsolete in between the cycles. The toughest part would be a curriculum that keeps up with the constant changes!

@em203mjeffery I agree! Technology steadily advances but its incorporation into our education systems is lagging behind. Both increased funding to allow schools to purchase necessary equipment, and the inclusion of technology in teacher training would be helpful!

The first three lessons of this course have taught me that our current digital age allows information to be presented in many different, effective ways. As the world of technology continues to grow, it is important that it is incorporated into our education systems. #EM203Robin
