@EM203Manmohit#EM203problems Access to mental support is often stigmatized. Therapy has more recently been embraced as being less stigmatized, but often mental health can be something that people don't want to talk about, which can lead to them not knowing or wanting to get help

@EverettSmith77 I agree. Thinking more about how you personally learn is super valuable as a learner. It really forces you to confront if your current learning habits are positive.
@EM203mstrongman Great point! Learning by doing is my personal favourite way to learn something! Getting your hands dirty really exposes your gaps in your current knowledge, and at least in my experience, more often than not makes the knowledge much harder to forget!
@EM203ChloeY Hi Chloe, I agree, the course is structured really well. The way we interact with each other really gives this course a lot more impact than I expected!
@EM203ElizabethY Hi Elizabeth, I really found cognitivism to be a really interesting topic as well. I think it's really cool that there are so many different theories as to how we learn! Hopefully we can take away something from each of them in our learning journeys! #EM203KathleenClarke

In the first three lessons of #EM203KathleenClarke I've explored the world of digital learning! Through these lessons I've learned about learning theories, the importance of multi-modal media, and how attention impacts learning. Excited to see where this course goes next!
