Hello @VOICES__Network what are the highest barriers to education that refugees are faced with in the UK?

@unicefchief Hello @unicefchief, I was wondering what your opinion is about the biggest barriers that kids in North America face when it comes to access to education?

We need to make sure every child has a chance at the best possible education. That includes having access to the internet at school. It's a critical step in bridging a growing digital divide and providing 21st Century skills for a 21st Century labor force. cnn.it/2OT66Bu

Butts: Wilson-Raybould then did something he had never seen in 13 years: She turned down a cabinet portfolio. She said she opposed the Indian Act and could not be in charge of a department that administered it. She wanted to stay at Justice.

Exercise one of the best things you can do for your body and mind. A simple morning jog can improve your mood and energy levels for the entire day!

In the past 3 lessons, I have learned the importance of understanding the digital age and how its complex and dynamic structure has changed the way society functions. Multi-tasking, Multi-media and Connectivism are topics that have interested me so far in this course #EM203Robin

@EM203atownsend Hi Alexandra, one of the issues you brought up about health is how much junk food we have available. So much of our food is processed so that it can last on shelves or during its distribution. Its so hard to eat healthy when it's so expensive to do so!

@Em203cbroda Hey Claudia, I liked your concept map regarding the environment. The issue of endangered species is completely looked past until some of our favourite species enter the list. Did you know 3/9 Giraffe species are now considered extinct? #EM203problems

@EM203RKharazi Hey Robin, this class has certainley opened up my eyes and showed me how many different methods we can use to learn! The exercises we did last week showed me how easy it is to learn sudoko with just a bit of motivation, determination... and of course... the Internet!

@EM203JMcBride Hey Jasmine. Behaviourism is definitely an important learning technique that is used in the dissemination of knowledge all around us! Its crazy how technology enables us to learn things such as a verse of a song in German. Congrats!

In the first 3 classes, I learned about Behaviourism, how its applied through reinforcement, and examples of it, such as operant conditioning and classical conditioning. This week I applied my knowledge of reinforcement to learn a verse of a song in German! #EM203Robin

@EM203bbeynon Hey Brittany! I definitely agree with you. Hands on learning is definitely among the best ways to learn, allowing you to be engaged and fully understand the materials at hand.

@corrado_amanda Hey Amanda, I cannot believe we are in our fourth week now! The cartoon exersize was an awesome way to express ourselves through such creative means!

@DanielleMarsala Hi Danielle, I am also excited to learn more about how the digital age has revolutionized communication and reflect on how we learn on a daily basis!

In the first 3 weeks of the class, I have learned about multiple different approaches to learning theory. We have also explored the many different ways that the Internet has impacted how we learn! #EM203Robin
