Crazy times

@lynnstayshome @SpottedLaurier it's just sad that Laurier had to embarrass themselves on such a public stage for that search by the Bookstore & ICT to be conducted when it should've been conducted during the planning stage. the departments knew webcams were low in supply and still tried to force it on students

@lynnstayshome @SpottedLaurier I'm sure even if we didn't go to the media students would have raised concerns that majority of webcams were sold out in the first place and the department would have had to conduct that research...

FYI Laurier made a decision on webcams for the spring/summer/intersession terms!

@BethFratesMD How has Juul impacted your practice and what can we do to prevent this problem from spreading?

@askthedr How can we prevent minors and teens from becoming addicted to Juul?

@OntariosDoctors How has Juul impacted your practices?

wow never knew how bad this issue was!!

Having more women in leadership roles can help to tackle the issue of girls having difficulty accessing education!

To ensure girls in developing countries have access to education, we need to first tackle the issue of child marriage as that is a major variable. Here is a graphic that includes potential solutions!

vox.com/the-goods/2018… A problem I identified is in the USA people with high stakes in anything car related influence politics to keep investing in highways, making low income people to have no transportation. My solution would be to invest more money into public transit instead

childmind.org/article/teen-v… This is an article I found that interested me, as many students today are vaping and the health consequences are just being discovered.

Amazing to see the turn of events in such a politically charged era!

A quote which interested me was from the article I found, it stated, "We see clear signs that youth use of electronic cigarettes has reached an epidemic proportion.”

@WLUFoodServices @SpottedLaurier @Laurier @FairtradeCanada What about Starbucks or Second Cup then?

@ChaviEm203 @SpottedLaurier Yes, you are correct. While our coffee may be a bit more pricey at Frank’s & Byte75, @Laurier is a #FairTradeCampus. Every coffee purchased contributes to fair wage for coffee farmers. Learn more here➡️ bit.ly/2JfBuIu @FairtradeCanada

Does the tims on campus still not have iced coffees

@WLUFoodServices @SpottedLaurier Okay but all those places charge way too much for their iced coffees compared to tims

@SpottedLaurier Hi there, unfortunately our Tim Hortons location does not offer iced coffee. However, all of our other coffee shops on campus offer iced coffee such as Frank's, Byte75, Williams and more. If you have any other questions or comments, please email us at laurierfoodservices@wlu.ca

@EM203JayLongo Hi Jay, I found the digital literacy aspect in this course so interesting. I couldn't help but wonder how digital literacy will evolve and change as we shift more and more into digital and online spaces.

@alexmartin_1 Hi Alex, I totally agree with you! It wasn't until I took this course that I realized when I tried multi-tasking it was just leading me to be counter-productive in a school setting.

@rensim_em203 Hi Rensi, Wow! When I learned about connectivism it reminded me about how I used to learn routines for my dance team, exactly the same way you learned how to sing a song verse in German. By listening and doing.

@SamanShafiq6 Hi Saman, Isn't it interesting how once we figure out our learning style we can improve our grades and communications so much more?

So far the course has been going well and I am able to discover what my learning style is and how to effectively use it. #EM203Robin
