The more you move, the more your kids will. In fact, for every 20-minute increase in parents' physical activity, their kids' activity levels also increase by 5-10 minutes. #ParentBetter and get active together! 🛶 #NationalChildDay #EverythingGetsBetter 👉 https://t.co/RL0liZzn8t

Under the ban, students can only use personal mobile devices during instructional time if it is for educational or health purposes, or for special needs. https://t.co/DcJgP0j6D6

It’s alarming to learn how much sugar is added even in baby food products! This could be a direct cause to childhood obesity as we are getting hooked on sugars at such a young age. #EM203Clarke #EM203Research

[Robert Lustig MD @RobertLustigMD]

Baby food products are too high in sugars. In 3 of the cities studied, 50% + products provided over 30% of the calories from total sugars. A third of the products listed sugar, concentrated fruit juice or other sweetening agents as an ingredient. https://t.co/5Q6acVXVC9

@jmkrech Many student rental properties don’t separate garbage and recycling, which is a huge problem in waste management contributing to pollution. #EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@g_em203 The lack of education regarding what vaccines are needed and the benefits they provide cause much of the controversy around vaccinations.#EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@EM203AlexiaF There is a lack of awareness and a strong stigma around mens health issues. #EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@EM203laurenpub1 Many students struggle with the school-life balance, especially with the increasing social pressures from social media. #EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@SarahHipwell5 The lack of understanding by many parents about the stress in their child’s life, makes it that much more difficult for them to get help. #EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@EM203kaylafab The lack of education regarding all environmental issues is only one of the reasons contributing to why we aren’t seeing enough positive changes. #EM203problems

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@SarahBellerby2 The lack of time and interest in physical activity could be a direct result of the increased use of technology in children’s everyday lives. #EM203problems

@andreashiva1 I love how twitter is incorporated in the course though! It allows us to apply the learning that we have been doing on such a relevant digital platform. It has already broadened my view of twitter in just a couple of weeks!

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@EM203laurenpub1 Thats an interesting thought because even though connectivism has impacted the way we gain knowledge outside of academic institutions, more and more of our schools are using digital platforms as a means to teach students and convey information among them!

[Danielle Wood @EM203DWood]

@andrew_diiorio All the different learning theories are so relevant in our everyday lives! It also got me thinking about my elementary school teachers and their teaching methods but I also think even how we are learning here, at the university level, that it is still extremely applicable.
