Hey @educationcanada, I’m doing research for my class on the lack of reliable internet in rural parts of Canada and how it is affecting education. As someone who wants to go into teaching, do you have any recommendations on how to teach students online at home through COVID-19?

@meganEM203 Great concept map about Education! A problem that you may be able to expand on is within the Accessibility section of your concept map. Another problem you could address here is the unequal access to opportunities across different economic classes #em203problems

@EM203ASooch Great concept map about Health! A problem that you could expand on is within the Mental section of your concept map. Something that gets overlooked is work-life balance and the impacts that a negative balance can have on someone’s mental health #em203problems

@EM203kbickell Great concept map about Economy! A problem that you may be able to expand on is the Environmental Impacts. This idea can be connected to the use of technology and spending, pollution or the impact of global warming on the economy. #em203problems

@EM203TRumble Great concept map of Education! A problem that you may be able to expand on is the family's influence on education. This idea can be connected to the accessibility of technology and resources outside the classroom #em203problems

Hey @em203kmoran ! Great concept map on education, one issue you could add under resources is physical health. Unfortunately some people grow up in environments that do not teach them about the importance of physical health therefore schools should offer this. #EM203problems

@EM203eboyle Hi Emma! These theories and learning methods are so crucial to understand in today's unique learning environment. I could not imagine going through school without a simple search engine like Google!

We are learning in the digital age, which allows us to access any information through a simple search! These past weeks, I have learned the multiple theories for learning online and the modes of accessing & comprehending information (3M's). #EM203Robin

@jessicaem203 Hi Jessica! I have also learned a lot about how people learn in a digital age. I looked at connectivism and the importance of this learning theory in today's unique learning environment.

@EM203CPorco I agree with your message! Today's education and learning environment has highlighted some different theories and the importance of digital learning

The first few weeks of #em203Robin focused on understanding various learning theories and technology in our everyday life and education. Our group was tasked with connectivism. Connectivism is more important now than ever before due to the pandemic limiting human interaction.

@EM203vgeimer @EM203LParcher The recalling experiment definitely opened my eyes to the power of distractions. I also enjoyed reading the lesson about the 3 M's!

Over these first 3 classes, I have enjoyed learning about the 3 M's: Multi-media, Multi-modal, and Multi-tasking. In particular, the impact of multi-tasking on my learning through the recalling experiment. #EM203Robin
