@MHCC_ Thank you so much for your reply @MHCC_ . I am sure these resources will help students and parents to cope with this pandemic.

@Em203Sakshi Thank you for your question. There are several resources to help schools, parents and students get through this pandemic. Here are useful ones we've put together: bit.ly/3gvxpiR | bit.ly/2IBmOXk | bit.ly/3qH2kgO

Hi @MHCC_ we see how the pandemic has affected everyone around especially their mental health. What kind of support can be provided remotely to students in schools and universities? What are they ways one can work on improving their mental health?

A few solutions which can help students to deal with mental health and anxiety include raising awareness, one on one counselling and providing more resources. #EM203

I am going to talk about the effects of online studies on university students. Online studies due to the pandemic has impacted students in big way mentally, physically and socially. macleans.ca/education/insi…

Happy Remembrance Day everyone

EM203 has taught me so much in only a span of 3 weeks. Understanding the central focus of the digital age and the impacts of technology has allowed me to establish a clear understanding on how the Internet has revolutionized in the 21st century. #EM203Robin

@EM203kstraus Hi Kristen, I am very excited to see how this pandemic changes the learning structure in the future.

@ColinEm203 Hi Collin, multitasking is really hard especially with internet, there are so many distractions. To excel in all tasks one does, proper management to multitask is very important.

This week's lesson reaffirmed a bad habit that I experience as a "digital native": multi-tasking. Although we tend to perform multiple tasks at once with multiple devices and priorities, performance deteriorates in at least one task - especially in an academic setting #EM203Robin

@EM203Anniex Hi Annie, I could not agree more. Internet played a huge role accessing information in this digital age and especially these COVID times.

The digital age is changing how we learn, with information accessible at our fingertips it is easier than ever to share, collaborate, and contribute to ideas. #EM203Robin

@EM203vgeimer @EM203LParcher Hi Vincent, the recalling experiment was definitely challenging but I learnt a lot about multitasking and distractions.

Over these first 3 classes, I have enjoyed learning about the 3 M's: Multi-media, Multi-modal, and Multi-tasking. In particular, the impact of multi-tasking on my learning through the recalling experiment. #EM203Robin

@EM203ABondale Hi Akshay, Learning by doing is definitely a form of learning that I use to understand things better. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Self-paced online learning has been an interesting, yet obvious form of learning given social distancing measures. Last week we learned about "learning by doing" - a form of learning that will be impacted greatly by the pandemic #EM203Robin

@EM203MSutton Hi Megan, I loved your take on the behaviourism theory. I look forward to learning more theories.

So far in #EM203Robin I’ve studied behaviourism - the theory that behaviour is simply a response to stimuli in one’s environment, which conceptually is operant learning. I’m looking forward to learning more about these theories and their relevance in this evolving digital world!

@EM203KRamseyer Hi Karli, I loved your take on EM203 learning so far. Learning more about the learn-by-doing theory was great

EM203 has taught me so much in just 3 weeks. It has definitely helped me understand the impact of technology in this digital age. Especially in COVID times, we have seen how technology has completely taken over our lives especially the education field helping us in many ways.
