Recently there seems to be an increase in the number of forest fires around the world. This led me to question what is driving this increase, and what can be done about it. Not surprisingly, the root cause of these fires comes down to global warming! #EM203Robin #EM203Problem

Encouraging physical activity at a young age is crucial for developing healthy habits among youth that they can carry on to their future. Enlisting in a fitness program for example (pictured) is a great way to help solidify this habit.

What people are able to accomplish when they put their mind to something is amazing! #EM203Robin #EM203Research

Throughout the first 3 lessons, I have learned that in our digital society, learning can be done with our visual, spatial, or auditory abilities. Multi-Modal method recognizes that using multiple abilities proves to be more effective than 1 in the learning process! #EM203Robin

@Em203Pattison Absolutely! It's also interesting to note that by combining the use of different forms of media, an individual can really strengthen their understanding of the topics they are learning

@rosso27101 Completing that exercise revolving around multitasking really helped drive home how the brain operates when trying to focus on too many things. This is definitely something I will learn from and try to improve in my everyday life!

In these past three weeks, I have learned about the digital age and a bit of the way the human mind focusses in regards to multitasking. Looking forward to learning more about the course! #EM203Robin

@EM203OliviaM Everything discussing the digital age has been very fascinating to learn about! Having to make such a drastic shift in the way individuals now consume information has so many interesting implications on the learning environment

So far I have enjoyed learning about how learners have adapted to the digital age, the different approaches to teaching/learning in such an age and the multi-media, multi-modal and multi-tasking methods that we now use to navigate this surplus of digital resources #EM203Robin

@g_tynd Agreed Greg, these lessons have done an excellent job in conveying the course content. One area I really appreciate is the discussion forums and how they provide us with a medium to dive deeper into the content

The first three lessons of EM203 have been very interesting. I am enjoying how interactive and engaging the weekly lessons are and have developed a deeper understanding of the strong influence media has on society #EM203Robin

@EM203TSantilli Very interesting viewpoint Tyler! Improving your learning by utilizing more than one ability is something that more individuals should try to employ when approaching a new task

So far in EM203, interesting topics have been brought up! One point that stands out to me is how in today's digital age, learning is complex and dynamic. There are so many different ways to absorb information, allowing for people to have a more thorough understanding!#EM203Robin
