@SnuddenStephen Hi Professor, I am a Laurier BBA student currently exploring trade policy for a course project. I was curious to hear your take: how should Canada best respond to U.S. tariff threats without risking divestment?

@JimboStanford Just read your July 22 report- your analysis of why even ‘relatively low’ tariffs pose disproportionate risk to our economy very compelling. Im curious, how best can Canada balance resisting these harmful tariffs without accelerating divestment?

Here is a picture which depicts the nature of Tariffs. #em203

I read this great article which explores how the pause on Trump’s Tariffs is ending next week and what this might mean to the stock market and volatility. reuters.com/world/china/in…

#BREAKING: Canada capitulates on the DST, even though Mark Carney campaigned on standing up to Trump, claiming his elbows were up. Since his election, his elbows have been down. Was Carney lying for votes, or is he just a coward?

Canada is aiming to take steps to ensure trade talks continue. I believe it would be important to reach a trade deal. #EM203Research bbc.com/news/articles/…

It’s wild that some students are learning with AI while others still don’t have working Wi-Fi. The tech gap in schools is quietly becoming a real equity issue. #EM203problems @EM203OliverS

@EM203gracem #EM203problems It important you highlighted some issues Gen AI is having on education. However, could this be related to people still bot integrating it correctly and efficiently in the education system?

@ArmanPotheriWL #EM203problems I completely agree that the external factors you listed are contributing to the cost of living crisis. But do you think any internal factors might play a role, as worker productivity is a major issue in Canada?

@EM203MadhuHarik #EM203problems I think you covered a lot of the main factors which can influence Education. Do you think living in urban vs rural areas is also just as big as a factor as some of the ones you listed?

@EM203BurhanN I completely agree. I am excited to learn more about how learning is changing in the digital age.

After 3 weeks of #EM203Robin, I’ve realized how much digital tools shape how we learn, not just what we learn. From building comics to testing multi-tasking, this course makes you think differently about info, tech and attention.

@EM203Akostopoul I have really enjoyed the course so far too! Learning about how connected we are through technology and its implications is very insightful.

I am quite impressed with the progress of the first three lessons of #EM203Robin's class. All the lessons so far have been interesting and thought provoking. Something I did not fully expect but have had a great time learning about. Looking forward to up incoming lessons!

@MatthewEM203 I really enjoyed learning about contructivism as well! Playing sports woth my friends is always a great refresher after spending time online.

This course has already allowed me to deeply reflect on how youth learn in a digital world. Constructivism was the main concept that stood out for me. It’s fascinating how everybody is connected nowadays yet they still crave some time offline. #EM203Robin

@EM203AgamS Great points, I think flexibily and balance is very important in the digital age. Excited to learn more out it!

The first 3 lessons of the course taught me the foundation for learning in the digital age through flexibility and balance. For ex., knowing when and how to use Multimedia tools and multitasking boosts engagement. I am excited to learn their impacts next week. #EM203Robin

@EM203Abhinav Great points! I would definitely agree that is not always easy to identify relevant info.

I have finished Lessons 1–3 of #EM203Robin. Learning today means using the Internet, juggling multiple tasks, and figuring things out through trial and error and continuous research. With the amount of data, identifying relevant information is not always easy, yet possible!

I have just finished the first classes of #EM203Robin. Learning it todays world has changed so much from where we get information, how we interpret it, and how we share it. I think the skill of selecting what to believe or not has become ever so important!

What is Harder?🤔
