This week I need to reach out to an expert for insight regarding the topic of single use plastics @WLU_EcoHawks What are some initiatives being taken by Laurier to reduce consumption of single use plastics? #EM203Problem

Some pointers for recycling at home #EM203Robin

Maybe we can take some tips from those who have already taken steps in the right direction? #EM203Robin google.com/amp/s/globalne…

Will this be more counterproductive or will it encourage more to use the compost? #EM203Robin

EM203 has broadened my perspective regarding learning in a digital age. Using platforms, such as MyLS and Twitter, our class is able to discuss our opinions, share and expand our knowledge, and discover different ways of learning in this connected world. #EM203Robin

@em203sdoyle your mind map touched on a topic that I also find interest in! One problem that stood out to me was the lack of incentive to eradicate single use plastics, which have such a significant impact on our environment. #em203problems

@SherifAneer thanks for sharing your mindmap Aneer! One problem that I found intriguing from your map was the impact of droughts, which however prominent is something that I have never thought as an impact of global warming. #em203problems

@find8438 I agree, using these resources provided to us will allow for so many new opportunities and sharing.

So far we have learned to connect by using learning resources, our peers and information in order to effectively learn in the digital age. It is important for learning purposes that we are provided with tools that build these connections such as media and open discussion. #EM203

@LBEM203 I agree, the internet and the newfound connectedness that comes along with it has really changed the way we learn.

So far in this course I have learned how we are all connected as a society. From the world wide web to direct face to face conversations, there are many mediums to communicate. I have also learned the different ways to learn new tasks and to embrace challenge. #EM203Robin

@EM203Tanner Imagine how much more can be learned now that this network has been developed, it’s almost unbelievable to think about.

The first few weeks of this course have emphasized how growing up in the digital age has truly affected how we learn, and has brought almost any topic within reach may that be through a wiki, a video, or even just an online forum. #EM203Robin

@SchwantzBrianna To think social media would be so productive, I doubt developers at the time had this use in mind.

@TT4230 Who would’ve thought the impact technology would have on us!

So far, this course has shown that theories can change and adapt along with society. The impact of technology and the internet, which are both very relevant in today’s society, on a subject as subjective as learning was only inevitable.
