@EM203JFine Great tweet Julia. This stigma causes dangerous outcomes when people don't feel like they can ask for help.

Causes of the lack of understanding of the correlation between mental and physical health are multidimensional. One is the stigma associated with mental health. People are more willing to seek help for physical ailments and not mental ones. We must #BreakTheStigma! #EM203Robin

Now more than ever, we need to get comfortable with talking about suicide and not shut down the conversation, writes @TrevorProject's Chris Bright. out.com/commentary/201…

The lack of mental wellness facilities and mental health support within University campus’s poses a huge threat to student wellbeing that may result in serious and dangerous consequences.

Do you think that universities lack the resources to support student mental health?

@YPI_ROCK hi there! I am looking for some insight on how to raise awareness on the impact of taking care of ones mental health in children and young adults. Thank you!

Hi @peaceofmindcda ! I’m looking for insight and opinions on determining the impact of mental wellness facilities ! Thank you!

The lack of mental wellness resources on university campuses is a dangerous and alarming issue with serious consequences. This picture outlines resources on a scale of energy and intensity #EM203Robin

“The focus of this year’s Thrive Week is helping our students develop coping skills so that they have the tools needed to navigate the highs and lows of student life.” Understanding Lauriers initiatives is key in evaluating campus resource availability #EM203Research #EM203Robin

Someone with a disability knows when you treat/speak to them differently. They want/NEED to be treated as if their barrier isnt there. We need to create awareness and make disability common place!

@EM203FKolar You raise a very valid point about internal motivation!! I can relate to that feeling, and was very interested in learning a soduku puzzle through lesson 4, where I experienced similar motivation and gave the task my undivided attention #Em203robin

@EM203EBrunelle Can you imagine not using technology in the classroom now? Even when it comes to simply using a laptop to take notes or watching a PowerPoint on a projector, it seems as though it would be impossible if technology were to be taken out of the classroom! #EM203ROBIN

So far in the course i've learned that technology is something we can use to excel our learning and be much more efficient. Technology is a great resource and will only continue to evolve as time goes on. #EM203Robin

@emmaem203 On one hand, social media allows us to connect with a broader scope of people and facilitates quick and seamless connections all over the world. On the other hand, social media communication can become insincere and feel “fake” when overused #EM203ROBIN

@EM203AbbyL Completely agree Abby! Technology really aids engagement, especially when it comes to learning!!

The first few weeks of EM203 have been very fun and interactive, showing me the power of learning through media in the digital age. It demonstrates just how complex technology is, and the way it affects our everyday lives! #EM203Robin

@em203lflatt Hey Laura!! I find myself doing this all the time. In fact, right now I’m on Twitter, watching Netflix and reading a textbook. Definitely can be distracting and not productive most of the time

In this digital age, multi-tasking has become a part of everyday life. Who else finds themselves watching a show, while cooking dinner, and checking instagram? #EM203Robin

In week 3, I was especially surprised to learn that although multitasking seems achievable, since I have grown up in the age of the internet, research does not in fact support benefits of multitasking in an academic setting #EM203Robin

The first 3 weeks of EM203 have been unlike any other class I have taken so far. The interactive learning through the use of twitter and discussion posts allows me to connect with other classmates and truly enhances my learning experience #EM203Robin
