Social Media has affected the way we process the information and from there how we expressed the information. It shaped the way we act, think and talk. Is it possible to use social media without it controlling us? #EM299Robin

Doomscrolling can have a bad impact on us, see the picture below for more info.

Do you struggle with doom scrolling?

I am so excited to continue learning in my EM203 class at Laurier. In the first few weeks I have learned about how in the digital age we now learn through media, multitask more than ever before, and have the ability to learn anywhere! #EM203Robin

@EM203_Gaurv29 Hi, I completely agree! Digital tools have made a lot of people's lives easier and have made a significant contribution towards improving education!

Throughout the past 3 weeks in EM203, I understood the importance of being able to use digital tools properly as they provide many benefits to us such as easy communication. These lessons have kept me interested as it's not something we learn outside of this class. #EM203Robin

@EM203AnshulS Hi Anshul, I think the 3 M's is extremely relevant in today's day and age. Multimedia has definitely revolutionized the way education can be taught in different parts of the world today!

The first few lessons in EM203 have been super interesting! They provide a fascinating introduction to the digital world we live in today. I've learned a lot about different learning styles and The 3M’s! (Multimedia, Multimodal, Multitasking) #EM203Robin

@EM203YashArya I agree, multi-tasking is very hard and can have serious effects on oneself if they do not realize. I have tried and never been successful at it.

Now that I have done the first three lessons in this class, I have learned a lot of new things about how we learn! I found the impacts of multi-tasking being detrimental interesting to read about, and can't wait to hear more! #EM203Robin

@EM203FKhan This is so true! I thought multi-tasking was possible earlier, but now not so much due to a similar experience. I am still working on being better at this haha

As a digital native, I’ve learned that while we excel at multitasking, it doesn't always translate to academics. Juggling too many tasks hinders focus and retention. This makes sense why I often struggle to focus on lectures while scrolling through my phone!😅 #EM203Robin

@Vansh1265 Hi Vansh! Great point! I think constructivism allows everyone to learn topics through their own lense instead of being told to memorize for an exam!

With #EM203Robin, we learned about the concept of constructivism and how learning is done through personal experiences/interactions with others. It encapsulates how everyone learns and brings their own background to understand and analyze the world around them.

@EM203NButts Hi Nicholas! I think you have talked about a very relevant point in today's day and age! Adding on, I think learning in the digital age allows children and adults from different parts of the world to gain access to education!

Hi Everyone! I am taking EM203 and I am learning about the 4C's-Critical Thinking, Communication, Collaboration and Creativity. Each of these skills is extremely important in university and I am hoping to apply it in this course and others! #EM203Robin
