Hi @stopconcussions as part of my #EM203 university course I am required to reach out to a platform to discuss potential solutions to the issue of concussions in football. Are there any online resources that athletes can utilize to better understand the risks of the game? Thanks!

With the awareness of brain injuries becoming more prevalent, I am extremely curious to see what big sports franchises will to do ensure safety in their athletes. This website provides additional information on the causes of CTE. https://t.co/IIvwxe61ri #EM203Robin#EM203Problem
In 2005, a pathologist named Bennet Omalu released the first ever reordered evidence of CTE in the former NFL player Mike Webster. The degenerative disease spreads throughout the brain killing brain cells. #EM203Research https://t.co/VG0utTZJfn

Over the course of the first few classes of #EM203Robin my perspective of the way we learn has greatly expanded. I have learned about different learning theories and more specifically constructivism; a form of learning where new ideas are compared to ones pre-existing experience.
@EM203amiscione Hey Alliasen, well put! I am definitely eager to learn more about how technology plays into learning. I can't wait to see what other interesting facts we learn through exploring this course.
@vincentsmallwo4 Hey Vincent, nice tweet. I couldn't agree more about perspectives being expanded through the first three weeks of this course. I cannot wait to continue my learning.
@EM203Bscodeller Hey Brad! Great tweet. You effectively summarized constructivism in "280 characters or less"! Constructivism is a very effective learning style indeed.
@EM203CurtisH Hey Curtis, couldn't agree more regarding how the course is set up. There is a great community feel. You said it best, can't wait to see what comes next!
The first three lessons of EM203 have greatly expanded my perspective on the way we learn. I have read about different learning theories, more specifically constructivism. This is a form of learning where new ideas are compared to pre-existing experiences. #EM203Robin
