@oceana @amazon Hi there, thank you for your tweet! Are there any other organizations we should protest to ensure a brighter future in terms of the global plastic pollution crisis?

A single ingested piece of plastic can kill a sea turtle. Tell @Amazon to give customers a plastic-free packaging choice to help fight the ocean plastic pollution crisis and save sea turtles: bit.ly/3iwaBRD #PlasticFreeJuly

@DavidSuzukiFDN Hi Mr Suzuki, thank you for your insightful tweet! Are there any other ways we can help advocate against such organizations? #trashytactics

NOVA Chemicals is expected to produce 2,500,000+ tonnes of plastic this year (most goes to landfills!). Now, it's suing the federal government to try & stop regulation to reduce plastic pollution. Join us July 27th for a Twitterstorm and say no to #TrashyTactics! #PlasticFreeJuly

@mulindwa_guy Hi Mulindwa, I am also a passionate advocate for ending the plastic pollution crisis. What are your top tips for reducing global plastic consumption? Thank you!

Rivers in Kinshasa (DRC) are clogged with plastic waste. We are now facing a plastic pollution crisis. Individuals can make choices to be plastic free, but true responsibility lies with producers. Companies must #EndPlasticPollution

Hello everyone! This visual highlights the various ways we can reduce plastic pollution. Please check it out and feel free to reply with your thoughts. #EM203

Hi everyone! This website highlights 10 different ways to reduce plastic pollution. Check it out :) nrdc.org/stories/10-way…

As we continue our search and rescue efforts, our teams have not given up. For every first responder working in the debris, they’re driven by the desire to give peace and closure to the families and loved ones of those impacted.

Very interesting to learn about how face masks used during the pandemic have contributed to plastic pollution #EM203research #EM203robin

Plastic is one of the most pervasive materials on the planet and has significantly contributed to the global pollution problem. This article published by the GOC discusses the problem in detail and proposes various solutions! Check it out #EM203research pc.gc.ca/en/nature/scie…

Although it may just be the third week of EM203, I have learned a number of valuable lessons already. Some of which being: learning about Cognitivism and insights into learning in the digital age. #EM203Robin

During the first 3 weeks of this course, I have learned how the digital age has changed the ways in which we learn and different learning theories! This course has been really engaging and I like the discussion posts. 10/10 so far! #em203robin

Hi @EM203SamRozema - great concept map on the topic of climate change. You did a great job! :) Perhaps an area that you could look into further would be the warming of the Antarctic and its impact on ecosystems and specific species. #EM203Problems

Hi there @Patrick53620248! Thank you for sharing your concept map on education in your group. Perhaps you could choose to focus on access to technology and internet since we are learning in a digital age! There may be an unequal distribution of resources. #EM203problems

Hi @BarakEMS203 I enjoyed your concept map on the social class gap! I think it would be great for you to explore how this gap is further enlarged in minority populations. Specifically, researching the impact on Indigenous communities. #EM203problems

@EM203AKocher Hi Amy! Thank you so much for sharing this picture of you learning a new skill. I used to love Sudoko as a kid and always did them whenever I went on an airplane or long drive to pass time. I also agree about the coffee haha :)

@EM203fdionne Hi Felix! Thank you for the great insight :) I also learned about multi-modal learning and found it quite interesting. I am very excited to learn more in the months to come.

Today I learned that multi-modal learning is effective as long as the format is the same as the modality used to interpret it. #EM203Robin

@EM203_Keaton Hi Keaton! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the course. I completely agree with you - it has certainly been interesting :) I love that we get to learn about different learning styles specifically in the context of the digital age. I am very excited for the rest of the term!

@EM203Kev Hi Kevin! I'm SO glad the first three weeks have excited you. There is nothing more inspiring than students who are genuinely engaged in their education. Have there been any specific concepts about learning in the digital age that have surprised you?

The first three weeks in EM203 have been exciting! From just the first few weeks, I have broadened my understanding of how we learn in the digital age. Including how digital technology provides the ability for multiple approaches to information and communication. #EM203Robin

@EM203MRoberts Hi Megan - thank you for your awesome tweet! I completely agree with you...I love how we get to learn about education as students. It's also interesting how the discussion posts aren't marked, as you mentioned. It gives us a chance to truly express our opinions with no judgement.

So far I have found EM203 very interesting! I think I will enjoy this course as I find it interesting to learn about learning. I like how this course is set up with 3 major assignments and discussions/activities that are not marked, which give less pressure! #EM203Robin

#EM203Robin The first few weeks of the course have been great! In such a short amount of time, I have already learned about various learning theories, the use of digital technology in learning and reflected upon my own learning experience. I am excited for the rest of the term!
