@alyssawestreich Hi Alyssa ! There are many solutions to help alleviate these negative effects. I have linked an infographic that promotes positive body image within the social media world !

In the first few lessons of the course, I have learned how important technology is for virtual learning. Thus far the class has been super engaging and entertaining. I can't wait to see what the next lessons have to offer! #EM203Clarke

@EM203JoannaL Hi Joanna! My learning theory was constructivism which emphasized social interaction! This is a super fun and interactive course that very relevant to our age group!

Loved learning about the 4C’s of active learning, constructive learning theory, and the 3M’s! Excited to see what else will come#EM203Clarke

@em203emmabrand Hi Emma! I absolutely agree with ur standpoint. During these COVID times, online learning is very relevant in our lives and has become the new platform for learning!

The first 3 weeks of #EM203Clarke have opened my eyes to help me understand how I learn! Not only have I dove into the learning theories, but I have also learned how these come into play while online. It's really applicable as we've gone online due to COVID-19.

@CChowEM203 Hi Courtney! My learning theory was also constructivism!! Constructivism highlights individuals learning from their environment and personal experiences!

@EM203digregorio Hi Vanessa! What learning theory did you specifically learn about? Mine was constructivism, which emphasizes the importance on the use of social interaction to increase our knowledge!

These past three weeks of classes I #EN203Clarke has provided me with numerous learning experiences and techniques. New theories and concepts have been introduced that are very relevant to today’s society. This class allows for growth within technology and how to utilize it best!

@em203_hannah Hi Hannah! Thats awesome that you were unfamiliar with Twitter prior this course. This just emphasizes a new learning strategy for all no matter the age group !!

Three weeks into #EM203Clarke and I have learned about a variety of ways to utilize technology while learning new tasks. Before this course I was unfamiliar with Twitter and now I have a better basic understanding through completing the weekly Twitter challenges!!

@EM203brieveland Hi Brianna! I completely agree with your thoughts on virtual learning.. especially during COVID. This way of learning really emphasizes our generation!
