In today’s society, social media use is increasing. Unfortunately, with this, the negative impacts on mental health such as feelings of isolation and anxiety are becoming more prominent. What do you believe is the best path forward to minimize such impacts?

I find this tweet very interesting, because sleep is something we all need, and determines how you start each day. These tips can ensure everyone gets the quality sleep they deserve. #EM203Robin

@Em203Khan The economy was thoroughly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and took a great amount of time to recover. This led people to feel as though the pandemic was still happening even once restrictions were lifted. #EM203problems

In the first week of EM203, I have learned that social media and technology have a large impact on many things in society, and especially our learning. It has taught me different styles of learning and about connectivism, which is a very interesting concept to me. #EM203Robin

@em203chiggins An issue I find with the cost of education is that teachers' salaries don't increase with the rate of inflation. This leads them to strike which negatively impacts students' education. #EM203problems

[Erin Stransky @EM203EStransky]

@em203jpoag I also learned about connectivism and found it captivating how learning is done through making connections within one's# own brain. In addition, learning about the impact that social media and technology have on society was very interesting. #EM203Robin

@EM203MHaggith I have also found myself applying what we have learned so far in my everyday life. Finding out how much more efficient I am when I am focused versus with some distractions was eye-opening for me as well. #EM203Robin

@EM203MBrown Yes, this course has been a blast do far. I agree that it was super interesting to learn about the different ways we can use technology for learning and collaboration. #EM203Robin

[Erin Stransky @EM203EStransky]

@em203digiallon I totally agree, the first three weeks were super informative and it has been great to be able to interact with other students and learn more that way. #EM203Robin

[Erin Stransky @EM203EStransky]

@EM203Arkend I totally agree that using Twitter for the first time has been a lot of fun. The module I found most interesting was about the different learning theories, and how they can all be used for teaching different content. #EM203Robin

[Erin Stransky @EM203EStransky]

So far in EM203, we have acknowledged that people may learn differently in an online environment and that this generation of students is very connected to the internet. I also found it very interesting to study the learning theory of connectivism. #EM203Robin
