The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in millions of Canadians losing their jobs, and relying on government support in order to maintain their standard of living - what can we do to help bring stability back to our economy? #EM203Robin #EM203Problem

At least 30,000 Canadians homeless on any given night and over 200,000 Canadians experience homelessness every year. Here are 35 simple ways that you can help the homeless in Canada. #EndPovertyinCanada #helpthehomeless justgive.org/2013/12/11/35-…

This is a link to an infographic I created that highlights may shocking statistics about Canadian poverty. I post this with the goal of hoping to educate more people about how serious this issue is. #EndPovertyinCanada venngage.net/ps/zEVefI55lEM…

I found it interesting that long-running animated sitcoms The Simpsons and Family Guy are going to recast voice actors for characters of colour that are currently voiced by white actors. hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/fami…

Absentee Ballots are fine. A person has to go through a process to get and use them. Mail-In Voting, on the other hand, will lead to the most corrupt Election is USA history. Bad things happen with Mail-Ins. Just look at Special Election in Patterson, N.J. 19% of Ballots a FRAUD!

Well said! #EM203Robin

EM203 is one of the most interesting courses I have taken at Laurier so far. Through last week's lesson, we were able to explore new learning theories like connectivism, which transforms learning from traditional ways to new digital forms such as the internet. #EM203Robin

@pers6570 Connectivism was one of my favorite topics of that week!

During the first couple weeks, my group and I were able to explore learning in a digital age. I found our topic of connectivism to not only be intriguing but it also gave me insight on using this theory in day to day learning #EM203Robin

@EM203rkoraca The internet is definitely the backbone of modern education.

The internet has changed how we learn. We now have the ability to access more learning resources and be more collaborative than ever. In this day and age digital literacy is very important and gives people the opportunity to immensely expand their knowledge. #EM203Robin

@EM203Brittany Knitting terminology, interesting!

It's interesting to learn how different learning theories influence how individuals learn in a digital age! This week I experienced this through Learning by Doing by knitting a 5x5 square. My friend taught me but I still used YouTube to understand knitting terminology #EM203Robin

@EM203NNielsen I love sudoku! Wish I had more time to do them, work and school gets to be too much sometimes.

In the past three weeks of EM203, I have learned about how people understand knowledge in the new digital age that we live in today. As well I had the opportunity to read about the cognitivism theory, along with learning new skills like how to complete a hard sudoku. #EM203Robin

@asildhanani Very true, digital tech really does rule the current pandemic.

The first three weeks of this course has showed me the growing significance of digital technology in today's world especially during the current pandemic. Apart from this, I have also got the opportunity to learn about various learning theories such as constructivism. #EM203Robin

In the first few weeks in the course, I learned to adapt my study habits despite quarantine to the tools and resources we have available completely online. I can challenge myself to stay on task and focused during these strange times! #EM203Robin
