@celliottability We are currently facing a mental health crisis due to the pandemic. Do you believe the government should be putting in more effort to support those dealing with mental illnesses?

@ONThealth Do you believe more should be done to deal with the current mental health crisis? I have a potential solution of enacting a province-wide app that promotes self-care techniques. What are your thoughts?

Many kids getting their shots on Wednesday expressed excitement. “I see my friends but not the way I want to. I want to hug them, play games with them that we don’t normally get to,” said Mackenzie Olson, 10, after getting her shot in Decatur, Georgia. apne.ws/7xRbtWo

@EM203Ocon8940 For your concept map, a specific problem you could discuss is the future implications of the limited food supply on developing countries and how it will become even more difficult for them to access resources #EM203problems

@EM203Sandro For your concept map, one specific problem you could focus on would be the psychological effects of the increased unemployment rate and how this could impact the economy. #EM203problems

@EM203MDhillon Hey Manjot! I agree these first few weeks have been very educational and taught us numerous ways in how learning has changed due to technology.

@EM203ShaeGreco I've also noticed how much technology has slowly been incorporated into our learning. In elementary school, the teacher was the only person using any form of technology but as I entered high school and uni this shifted and most of my learning happened through some source of tech.

Fashion, yet as I have progressed and moved into secondary and post secondary education, I have realized the shift from teacher-centred to student-centred learning. Due to this change, I am able to work more independently (if I choose) but also, I am able to collaborate with

@rocha_062 Hi Nicole, I agree this class has been very insightful into the true impact the internet has had in changing our world. It's also interesting how every aspect of our world has been changed due to technology but the classroom setting has practically stayed the same.

@DanaEm203 Hi Dana, I agree with everything becoming available online, it has changed how information is introduced, presented and demonstrated. Almost everything you could possibly need is available all in one location.

In the first weeks of EM203 I have learned about the importance of information introduction, presentation, and demonstration, and how the digital age has drastically changed this process! EM203Robin

@EM203EDhaliwal Hi Ekjot, I agree that the internet has changed the way we learn. It's crazy how you can find a tutorial for just about anything online and in a few minutes you can learn a new skill.

The first three weeks of #EM203Robin have been very educational and fun! It's a very engaging and interactive course and I've enjoyed learning how the digital world is changing the traditional method of learning.
