Hi @WorldBankWater! I am a student at Wilfrid Laurier University researching the implications of water pollution for an assignment in one of my classes. Do you have any advice to give others about how to tackle this issue?

Hey @LaurierGreen! I am researching the implications of water pollution for an assignment in my EM203 class. Do you have any sustainable tips on how to tackle this issue?

Hi everyone! If you want to know more about the impacts of water pollution, please check out this infographic I created and let me know your feedback!

Another way you can minimize the negative health impacts from too much screen time is by turning off your phone 1 hour before going to bed! Doing so creates distance from your screens, and allows you to fall asleep faster, for longer, which is vital for good health! #EM203Robin

As the oceans absorb carbon dioxide that is in the atmosphere, reducing our carbon footprint is a great way to help stop water pollution.

Plastic waste reduction and proper recycling are two great ways to help our environment by preventing water pollutants from entering our oceans and other bodies of water.

This website goes into depth about all the specifics of water pollution, including the impacts it has on humans and the earth, and covers some tactics we can take to prevent it. nrdc.org/stories/water-…

This is a great way to use our resources and technology to make a difference in the environment. Reducing emissions at an individual level, with technological advancements, can help in preventing global warming and water pollution. #EM203Robin #EM203Research

I am focusing on water pollution for my EM203 Spread the News Project. A solution that I am interested in is the reduction of CO2 emissions. Check out this article that gives examples on how individuals can reduce their carbon footprint: nytimes.com/guides/year-of… #EM203Research

@emiliepower1 Hi Emilie, you have a great concept map! A problem I identified surrounding social media is the fear of missing out. FOMO has caused people to constantly be on their social media and worry when they are not, which overall affects their mental health. #EM203problems

@EM203_HYOKICH Hi Hanna, I like how detailed your concept map is! A problem I identified surrounding online education is that there is a lack of face-to-face communication with in turn leads to social isolation. #EM203problems

@EM203amccarles Hi Ainsley, I really like your concept map! A problem I have identified surrounding mental health is that there seems to be a larger stigma for those who identify as male. #EM203problems

EM203 has been such a fun and interesting class so far! I really enjoy the interactive learning we do, especially since it's an asynchronous class. The content that we learn is so relevant in today's day-and-age, and I'm super excited for the rest of the term! #EM203Robin

@EM203MEaster I completely agree! I didn’t know that much about experiential learning before the reading. I am glad I now understand it better and see how it applies to different activities inside and outside of the classroom!

Of the many concepts discussed through the first lessons of EM203, my focus on learning by doing in the Tony Bates reading helped to deepen my understanding specifically related to experiential learning. I found this reading very insightful and relevant to today. #EM203Robin

@EM203NVaz I completely agree, Nicole! Even though this is an education course, and I am not in education, I am still able to learn a lot about myself and can apply different concepts to all of my courses!

So far this course has been nothing short of interesting and fun! What amazes me the most is this courses ability to teach something new to everyone regardless of which program they are in! I can’t wait to see what the rest of the semester has in store for me #EM203Robin

@PelowTeresa I agree! Of course I have used technology for majority of my life, but never really appreciated it until we were all separated. I have become more dependent on it for communication and have seen a shift in my learning styles for sure!

With the formation of the internet came many opportunities for learning, communication and much more. It helped reinvent society as we know it and has resulted in the rapid exchange of knowledge around the world. #EM203Robin #InternetEqualsKnowledge

@EM203_Margaret I completely agree! Throughout reading the weekly content, I have come to better understand my learning styles and how our digital environment can impact and improve them!

In the first weeks in #EM203Robin I have learned many interesting things about myself. I was able to learn about different learning theories and how to incorporate those learning strategies into my everyday life. Can’t wait for what’s next!

@EM203NGottlieb I agree with you completely, Nyla! Especially being in a virtual environment right now, I feel that I can better relate to the topics discussed within the weekly content.
