@knowledgehook How can gamification of learning enhance student engagement during the pandemic? #EM203Robin

@knowledgehook How can ed-tech platforms like Knowledgehook enhance access to education in a pandemic world, while simultaneously aiding in bridging socio-educational and knowledge gaps?

"Due to COVID19, schools are closed for 85% of students worldwide. If countries act quickly, they can build education systems better after the pandemic so they are more prepared to deal with future shocks" (The World Bank). #EM203Robin

Krystal Ball just schooled the fuck out of Bill Maher on inflation, ya love to see it twitter.com/TheEmoDragon/s…

@globaleducation "Resilient education systems can be achieved when: 💣 response plans anticipate emergency risks and are adaptive 🦺 children are safe and protected in times of crisis 🔄 learning is uninterrupted and resumes promptly" #EM203Robin #EM203Research

World Bank on 'A global learning crisis.' Access to education isn't just about being in school. "Providing quality education requires building systems that deliver learning, day after day, in thousands of schools, to millions of students." #EM203Research worldbank.org/en/news/immers…

@EM203JuliaKelly Hey Julia, I chose to learn Sudoko...I can't believe you chose Tango, cheers to you! I'm sure you did great! #EM203Robin

@EM203RKalra Hey Rohan! I'm happy you're enjoying EM203. What skill did you choose to learn this week? I chose to learn the Tango, it was quite the spectacle!😅

Forcing me outside of my comfort zone, leveraging ed-tech, and learning new skills...thank you EM203 #EM203Robin #LaurierUniversity #Summer2022

My Problem Identification: Student mental health issues rise while the infrastructure needed to support youth mental health is lacking. Youth are most susceptible to mental health issues, yet they have the most difficulty accessing mental healthcare. #EM203Robin #EM203Problem

@EM203KhokharV Love the design of your concept map! A sub-problem that I’ve identified is standardization and how that impacts diverse learners. If the education system does not prioritize individualized learning plans, students will continue to fall behind #EM203problems

@EM203abarry A sub-problem that I’ve identified for access to mental health is socio-cultural and religious misunderstandings associated with mental health services. Our socio-cultural environment plays a significant role in what we normalize or ostracize #EM203problems

@EM203EWalker Great concept map! Another sub-issue that I identified relating to the post-pandemic mental health crisis is systemic barriers, as many believe that even with access, the system itself has been broken for too long #EM203problems

@EM203jacobtran Hey Jacob - I think there are both pros and cons to the transition to a digital world. Do you think the transition has done more harm than good? #controversy #EM203Robin

#EM203Robin We have explored the influences of the developments of digital technology, specifically on how we learn. It's interesting to examine how the internet has altered the learning landscape - everything is much more accessible. Can't wait to explore more on this topic!

@em203nicklash I totally agree! The cognitive learning theory is my preference as well. I learn best through Anderson & Krathwohl's taxonomy of the cognitive domain. #EM203Robin

EM203 has been off to a great start! I really liked learning about the cognitive learning theory because of how much I use it in my day-to-day life. I'm excited to see where this course goes and looking forward to learning more about learning :) #EM203robin

@EM203Shoffana_S Hey Shoffana - I definitely agree! The "How Do You Learn" Assignment takes the course a step further in terms of application! #EM203Robin

I am really enjoying my time in EM203 so far. When it came to the content from the last 3 weeks, I really enjoyed reading Bates and the different learning theories. I can't wait to see what the rest of this course will teach me :D #EM203Robin

@EM203SophiaP It's definitely been engaging. As someone who hasn't used Twitter prior to this course, it's interesting to recognize its global influence #EM203Robin

With only 3 weeks in, EM203 has been such an engaging and interactive course! First, we began by taking a glance of learning in the digital age - and had discussions about different examples of learning theories! This week, we got to learn about the 3M's. #EM203robin

@EM203ANeill Interesting to learn about it theoretically after living in a digital world for the past 3 years! #EM203Robin

Learning how we learn in a digital world has been really exciting so far in the first three lessons of EM203. The opportunities to experience learning have been plentiful! #EM203Robin
