We are currently experiencing a mental health crisis in our Canadian post-secondary schools. Mental health diagnoses amongst Canadian students have almost doubled and our post-secondary institutions are failing to respond to their students needs. #EM203Problem #EM203Robin

Here are some resources that are always available to support you & your mental health 🫶#MentalHealthMatters #protectstudentsmentalhealth #EM203 #EM203Robin

This an interesting quote for some mid-week motivation! What do you think Socrates meant by this?🤔 #EM203Robin #EM203Research

So far in #EM203Robin I have learned about the impact the internet has had on our society, the way we communicate, and learn! This shift requires us to be aware of our learning styles so we can fully benefit from the availability of multi-media sources. Can't wait to learn more!

@EM203SBrooke Hey Sam! I agree, this course has defintley showed me a new side of creativity that I have not seen in any of my university courses before. I wish more courses used platforms like this for learning!

In the first 3 classes of EM203, I have really enjoyed the course delivery. It is unlike standard university courses in the sense that it allows for freedom and creativity. I have learned about learning styles, specifically connectivism, which really interests me. #Em203robin

@EM203cait Thats really cool that you learned how to knit! I dont think I could be able to do that… not so much the crafting type. Enjoy your new hobby!

One of the things I've learned in my first few weeks of EM203 was how to knit a 5cm x 5cm square. Who knows... maybe this will now be a lifelong hobby. #EM203Robin

@EM203Ecarvalho I too have had so much fun in this course so far! Really have been enjoying using twitter as a form of communication. I also tried out the expert level Sudoku, much harder than I expected!

The course has been filled with great learning opportunities. I’ve thought deeper about how I learn and why. I’ve done more hands-on learning than in other courses. I even had fun getting to create a comic, using social media, and trying an expert level sudoku. #EM203Robin

@Em203MTester I definitely agree! We have had such a quick and dramatic shift over to technology based learning (especially since the pandemic). I wonder how much more advanced technology can get!
