Education is very expensive in some parts of the world, hindering people's ability to be able to learn and grow as individuals because of their circumstances. Are there any personal actions you'd be willing to take to make education more accessible to these people? @RobinPersadWL

As a professor, what do you think is the best way to make education more accessible around the world? Reducing its cost can't always be the solution, so what else should we be working towards? @RobinPersadWL

One of the ways we can work to make education more accessible around the world is to reduce its cost. Just this one action could allow millions of people the opportunity to learn, something that no one should be deprived of.

It is so incredibly important to learn about yourself, learn from others, and create a brand new outcome for yourself with everything in your life.

Throughout the first 3 classes of the EM203 course, I have learnt a lot about learning theories as well as how I interact with digital media/content as a consumer #EM203Robin

@EM203Harris There are so many forms of media available to us!! I can't wait to see the improvements that come with time!

Over the last three weeks of our course, I went into the amazing realm of the digital era and its profound impact on our learning methods. We've explored the diverse means through which information reaches us, such as media formats like audio and video. 📚🌐🎥 #EM203Robin

@EM203m_gyau @EM203BParker Definitely!! It's so important to keep people engaged when learning and I think the use of different media sources is the way to do that when it comes to digital education!

Since you asked, I will deliver 🙃The first three classes have been great so far! Every now and then people talk about romanticizing their life. Could multi-media be a method of romanticizing or glamorizing digital education? 👀 #EM203Robin

@EM203YMohamed It is definitely eye-opening to realize that social media has an educational side of it as well. It really goes to show that social media will always be what you make of it!

The first three modules of EM203 have been eye-opening. They've shown me how we can extract knowledge from social media, which is pretty interesting. Plus, I enjoyed diving into the different learning styles in the digital age. It's been a cool experience so far. #EM203Robin

@EM203AliS I think it's also really important to note that these different methods of learning also greatly affect us in different ways, based on the kinds of learners we are! I cannot wait to explore this further!

In the first few lessons of EM203 I have learned that learning in the digital age is complex and dynamic, and that there are a number of methods in which information can be presented, be it video, graphics, audio or text. #EM203Robin

@EM203shawn Combining different types of media completely changes the way you learn. I've definitely noticed it in EM203, with it being completely asynchronous and solely relying on media!

Through my first 3 weeks in #EM203Robin, I've been learning a lot about the Digital Age and learning theories! This week I read about multi-modal learning environments, looking into the benefits of combining different types of media for an online learning landscape!

Getting started in EM203, I have learned a great deal about learning theories and processes, as well as how digital technology plays a part in it. #EM203Robin
