@whateveralexe @bigtimerush @jamesmaslow @1LoganHenderson @TheCarlosPena @HeffronDrive 100% agree they should’ve just switched to a smaller venue instead of just cancelling it all

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@fobchick08 @bigtimerush Not enough tickets sold I’m guessing:(

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@evergreen_dani @HeffronDrive @TheCarlosPena @jamesmaslow @1LoganHenderson @bigtimerush Definitely because they didn’t sell enough tickets:( I looked a couple days ago and way less than half were sold

@EM203DanielleD Hi Danielle! Here’s a video I did about staying active.. hope that helps 😊

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@jkwan_md Hi Dr. Kwan! Thank you so much for your response. The video is very helpful and informative! 😊

Hi @jkwan_md, I am a university student researching the effects of a sedentary lifestyle in children, and I was wondering if you could give any tips on how children can stay active while in online school + lockdown? Hope to hear from you! #EM203Robin

One of the most valuable things I've learned this past year is that there are other ways to get extremely valuable education. Taking FREE online courses puts you so much further ahead than you would ever expect. Learning new skills always ftw! #EM203Robin

Canada has now paused the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine for adults under age 55. How do they expect people over 55 to feel safe taking this vaccine with all this controversy? Another disappointing setback that slows us down from returning to normalcy. #EM203Robin

Great apes at the @sandiegozoo are the first non-humans to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. The news comes after eight gorillas at the zoo tested positive for COVID-19 in January.

So true, these little moments make such a positive difference in our lives. Really missing out on these this past year #EM203Robin #EM203Research

Laughter, singing, dancing, the casual hug or stroke of an arm — all of these things trigger endorphins. Endorphins are chemically similar to morphine and have similar effects. They lighten our mood and make us feel good

Coming into EM203 I had no idea really what I was signing up for. This year I have become obsessed with how education can be modernized. The activities over the past few weeks have opened my eyes to new methods. I can't wait to learn more! #EM203Robin

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@EM203_Britt Hi Brittany! I agree this course has been great so far, and I definitely think that due to the pandemic learning has changed forever, and that virtual learning/doing things virtually will still continue in some way.

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@Em203ABurdett Hi Alison, I have also been trying to modify my learning and study techniques during the first few weeks of this course. One thing that has helped me the most is limiting multi-tasking, focusing on one task at a time when studying, and it really helps reduce stress.

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@DimiSteven Hi Steven! The shift to a virtual atmosphere has affected people of all ages, especially students. It’s crucial that we adapt to a digital environment as we truly don’t know what the “new normal” in the upcoming years will be like & if virtual learning will become more dominant.

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@EM203_Helya That’s awesome to hear! I too used to believe that multitasking was beneficial to my learning however now looking back I realized that it made me more stressed as I was trying to complete multiple tasks at the same time. Focusing on one task at a time is a lot more effective!

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

@EM203avance Hi Avery! I agree that learning through multi-media optimizes students learning as it allows for students with different learning styles/preferences to be able to learn together and more effectively, & through different media sources presented together helps enhance memory.

[Danielle Dainton @EM203DanielleD]

I have learned a lot so far! One in particular being the cognitivism theory, where I learned the emphasis teaching learners HOW to learn, and ways to develop stronger mental processes to optimize learning 📚#EM203Robin
