@MentalHealthSe1 Hi Larkyn, your account is very resourceful and it is much appreciated. Over the pandemic, students have been diagnosed with anxiety and depression at an alarming rate. I would like to know your thoughts about what institutions can do better ? #EndTheStigma
@ShesAltard Hi Keena, I love the initiative of encouraging therapy. Throughout the pandemic, rates of depression and anxiety have skyrocketed specifically among post-secondary students. What can the institutions do to help this cause ?
Check out this article which outlines ways that students can improve their mental health with the help of their post-secondary institutions now that the post-pandemic era is nearing. https://t.co/6Afe5k1Dti
The emergence of cryptocurrency is truly interesting and will be a phenomenon that I will keep tabs on as I grow into my adult life #EM203Robin#EM203research
These past few weeks have allowed me to gain some insight into the learning process in the digital age. As a #digitalnative, it's been interesting to learn about the different learning styles and which learning style I have! #EM203Robin
Those first few weeks of learning have been great in EM203 so far! Beyond reading more about course concepts such as connectivism and multi-modal theory, I refined my sudoku skills as well! #EM203Robin
@EM203fatiman Hi Fatima, I would be lying if I said I didn't watch any tutorials of Sudoku to understand the concept further... did you use any resources to help you solve the puzzle? Either way, I am amazed that I was able to solve it.
@EM203Santi Hi Santiago, I definitely agree on the shocking amount of educational resources we have available to us; not just in university but to anyone ! It makes me feel great but overwhelmed that I can't take advantage of all of the resources.
@EM203SNOOR Hi Sarah, this course has definitely gotten me excited as well! From completing a Sudoku puzzle I thought I had no business solving, to being more active on twitter than ever before, I am definitely learning a lot. What has been the highlight of your experience so far ?
@EM203ryanb Hi Ryan, I couldn't agree more ! While studying and learning, I tend to be listening to relaxing study music or have something going on in the background which actually allows me to focus for longer periods of time.
@EM203kaitlin Hi Kaitlin, good point: it really does fascinate me the ways in which people learn which goes against the traditional lecture style. Do you believe we will eventually move away from this old-fashioned learning style or will things stay the same post-pandemic?
In my first lessons of EM203, I read about the digital revolution and the impacts that the consistent evolution of technology has had on our learning as a whole. Building upon this information, I also learned that I identify with Learning Group D: "Learn By Doing". #EM203Robin
