@ParticipACTION Hi! I love your page and read the new report cards each year! I am writing a piece on the detrimental effects of sedentary behaviour in youth and was hoping that you would have some possible solutions or tips to reduce this problem. Thank you so much!😀

Hi @GetActiveNPlay I’m writing a paper regarding the detrimental effects of children being sedentary. Part of the assignment is to get an expert in the field to tweet solutions at me! I was hoping that you would be able to tweet back and give a suggestion please! Thank you😀

How 16+ Ontario schools added thousands of dollars worth of sports fields at a fraction of the cost. A thread 🧵 :

This image demonstrates many easy ways for people to become more physically active. It doesn’t need to be an intense workout everyday, you can walk, stretch, or do things around the house to get moving! #EM203

This is such a great website that has many blog posts about physical activity and how important it is ! This article is “30 fun ways to get 30 minutes of physical activity today” health.qld.gov.au/news-events/ne… #EM203

This article discusses the devastating effects that sedentary behaviour is having on our mental health. It is a great read and gives tips on how we can become more active in our daily life! #EM203Research sciencenewsforstudents.org/article/too-mu…

@EM203SJoseph your concept map on poverty was laid out well and was informative! I like that you had the causes, effects and solutions. I think that a huge problem associated with poverty (and homelessness) would be the increase in cost for renting or buying a home. #EM203problem

@EM203pgalvao wow your concept map on social media was amazing!! You identified many of the problems I was thinking of but another one could be the “cat fishing” of people, especially when they intend to meet them. This can lead to many issues. #EM203problems

@em203malcolm your concept map on wage gap was really great!!! I love that you identified problems with gender, race and sexual orientation. I think that other problems with wage gap could be based on geographic location or education level. #EM203problems

@GrowdenAdam I liked your concept map! You had lots of different ideas surrounding computer science. I think it would be great if you expanded on the problems associated with “ethical hacking” and gave some examples. I would be interested in learning more. #EM203problems

@EM203pcarmichae I couldn't agree more, Paige! I never thought there would be a course where Twitter was a primary tool for learning, but here we are! Goes to show just how much the digital age has impacted learning methods.

@EmilyWhiteEM203 Hi Emily! I have also found the first 3 weeks to be interesting! I never thought about the teaching aspect of digital resources, but now that you mention it, I’m excited to learn more!

@EM203pauley Hi Sam! I also found it so interesting that everyone has their preferred method of learning. This really helped show me which one I learn best with which was cool! You’re so right that technology continues to impact them too.

The first 3 lessons of this course have given me the opportunity to investigate not only how each individual has a unique learning style, but also how these learning styles have been accommodated to by technology in this evolving digital world. #EM203Robin

@em203ichan Hi! I really like that you included that you were able to figure out how you learn, through this course. I felt the same after reading about the different learning theories. I’m also excited for what comes next!!

These past few weeks I've really enjoyed this course! Learning about different learning theories and the digital age really opened my mind to how I learn myself and how it has impacted society. I'm excited for the rest of the semester and what we will learn. #EM203Robin

@EM203ladams Hi Laura! I totally agree that the style of this course is unique but very good! It’s crazy to think that we weren’t always this huge digitized society that we’ve learned about!

@deor3210 I agree Cassie, I’ve always been a hands on learner and it was very interesting to learn more about that. Also fascinating to see that not everyone is like that!

Throughout my time in this course, I have learned about the importance of "learning by doing" and experiential/hands-on work. In this digital age, there seems to be many benefits to various learning theories. #EM203Robin

I have really enjoyed the first 3 weeks of this course! It is fascinating to explore how the digital age has come to be and how we have used technology to learn! I am interested in the different learning methods and am looking forward to next week! #EM203Robin
