Do you think that social media has a negative effect on the stigma surrounding social health?

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

Including others who are seen as different is one way the stigma surrounding mental health can be reduced. #EM203Robin

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

The stigma surrounding mental health doesn't just occur externally but internally as well. #EM203Robin

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

For people who have experienced a mental health illness, stigmatization and discrimination can be the difference between getting help and suffering in silence, making the reduction of stigmatization important. #EM203Robin

As heart disease contributes to 34% of the 7 million deaths caused by air pollution exposure, there is an immediate urge to resolve this prevalent, global issue. Perhaps incentivizing electric cars could be a feasible solution? #EM203Robin

The educational digital divide is a global problem and we must do everything we can to bridge this gap. #EM203Robin #EM203Research #closethedivide

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

It's not enough to educate others about mental health to reduce the stigma. While it is an important step, policies should also be implemented, especially on social media to ensure that stigmatizing messages aren't created in the first place.

Did you know that the stigma surrounding mental health causes 40% of people not to seek the help that they need? Let's work together to reduce the stigma by becoming educated and standing up for others on social media. #EM203Robin https://t.co/HRI3yjoh0y

@JennaFreedman I really like your concept map as it really points to the different dimensions of Atherosclerotic Heart Disease. As you have pointed out, there are many risk factors associated with this health condition.

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

@OnlineTyson a problem that could be associated with educational materials that are currently used in schools is the fact that they may not be adequate for the different learning styles that people have.

[Jenna Freedman @JennaFreedman]

@EM203rabbott your concept map provides a very thorough organization of the current issue of mental health. As you have demonstrated, mental health stigma is a product of many social factors especially from public unawareness. #EM203problems

@Em203Lee I totally agree. Learning has changed a lot in the past few years because of technology and the digital age. It will be interesting to see how technology continues to change how people learn and interact with others in the future.

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

@ISinghEM203 I also look forward to learning more about learning in the digital age. Learning through the use of pen and paper can be useful to some people. However, many have adapted to different digital technologies to enhance their learning!

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

@davenport_ryley It's so cool that there are multiple ways of communicating the same information so people who learn in different ways (auditory, visual, etc.) can all learn and understand the material in a way that works best for them.

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

@EM203MWright Totally agree, the internet is full of useful information. It literally takes no time at all to find what you are looking for with a simple Google search, making the research process so much faster.

[Rachel Abbott @EM203rabbott]

@EM203HBarrett Learning in groups is such a valuable tool! It's cool to see how technology such as Skype and other messaging/video chat applications make it possible for people to learn together in a group no matter where they are in the world.
