The topic of climate change is multifaceted with several causes, effects, and implications. The mind map below helps conceptualize the broad range of issues that encompass climate change.

Climate change the overall rapid changing of global temperatures. This infographic explains the process of climate change, starting from the solar radiation, and resulting in the phenomenon known as global warming.

@johnenglander You have mentioned in your book that rising sea level is unstoppable - would adapting coastal regions urban planning/design only be a temporary solution?

A solution to climate change is a clean source of renewable energy, such as wind energy!

Here is a link to an interesting website I found that lists some possible solutions to climate change: ucsusa.org/climate/soluti…

#EM203Robin #EM203Research I found this tweet really interesting, hope we learn more about Mars through the Persevere rover!

#EM203Research nationalgeographic.com/environment/ar… I found this article interesting related to my topic of climate change. The article goes over the causes of rising sea levels, consequences, and how we've adapted to this threat.

Hi @EM203_BRunciman, I think an issue you can address in your concept map is including an education element since access to education also directly impacts the economy. In particular it affects what opportunities are feasible, and in turn, your job/salary.

@EM203_michael Hi Michael, I agree I've also been noticing how we use learning theories from this course in our every day lives!

With each coming week, I feel more enlightened each time we learn something new in our group discussions! Learning these things have given me new appreciation to the things we have in our everyday lives. Connectivism is pretty cool 😎 #EM203Robin

@EM203nburrows Hi Nicole, that's a great insight! I thought this week's lesson especially was relevant to learning during COVID-19, as we learned how technology has made remote learning and learning at your own pace an increasingly popular method of teaching.

First 3 weeks of EM203 complete! As we all know, digital learning has become critical during the COVID-19 pandemic. This class is showing methods and approaches best suited to continue encouraging deep learning while on an online platform #EM203Robin

@EM203MHayat Hi Madiah, I agree the learning theories are very interesting! I never considered how many different ways there are to learn and teach so this course has really expanded my view on education!

Hello #EM203Robin! The first three weeks in this course have been pretty insightful so far, as I learned about the learning theory connectivism and how it supports digital learning as well as learning new skills and multi-tasking. Looking forward to learning more! :)

@EM203_kayleylym Hi Kayley, I agree! I think lyrical music is especially distracting because it's hard to focus on what you're reading while hearing another voice.

@EM203spearson Hi Sidney! I definitely agree and it's especially interesting to see the growth of connectivism as technology and learning through social media/the internet become increasingly popular - a very relevant theory in today's day and age!

@RijaEm203 Hi Rija! I also learned about the connectivism theory and thought it was interesting to analyze how exactly such theories are applied within the learning environment. I am also excited to learn more!
