@PublicHealthON racism has been rooted within our Health Care systems for years. Have you guys acknowledged and put any action forward to solve this?

The governments need to target and raise funding for education at all levels for communities and people of colour (predominantly Black people) to lower these gaps in comparison to the majority group

This article discusses the education gap for Black students with relevant data on today. This shines some light on the issue as it is closer to home than many believe https://t.co/nZEeAn3gvI

In America, 64.7% of Physicians and Surgeons, are white and 5.64% are Black. The first step in creating an anti-racist healthcare system is hiring more Black physicians and having more Black people in places of power within the healthcare system.

An eye opening article that highlights the effects a racist health care system has on expectant black mothers https://t.co/T7ErytK6d4

FedEx, which has naming rights to the Redskins’ stadium, released the following statement:

“We have communicated to the team in Washington our request that they change the team name.” https://t.co/LyqxggDyq9

Lots of learning to do. With that said, there is no better time then now while stuck in quarantine #EM203Robin #EM203Research

When the world doesn’t make sense, it is a signal that you need to learn.

This article provides relevant and important information on how racial biases within our Healthcare System impact the care that racialized communities receive. The quality of care one receives should not depend on the colour of their skin! #EM203Research https://t.co/HnrlS5xhid

@EM203MDay Hey Maya! That’s so awesome how you’ve learned sing this song in another language! Many people struggle with new languages, but maybe you have a talent for them. Might be something cool to learn this summer!

Hi @AydanW_EM203, great and in depth concept map on education! It would be interesting if you could look more into the percentage of males and females employed. Many positions of power are dominated by men and the wage received by men and women is still not equal. #EM203Problems

Hi @EM203bvitello, I enjoyed your concept map! One problem to look into is the amount of youth that are now getting diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Due to obesity and sedentary lifestyles, Type 2 Diabetes is becoming more common in children and teens #EM203Problems

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

@EM203bvitello No way! It was easier to learn than expected for me.

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

In the past three weeks of EM203, I was exposed to different learning theories, specifically learning by doing. I experienced the negative effects that multitasking can have on your studying and I learned a new skill- singing ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ in German #EM203Robin

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

@EM203_basil I agree that “learning by doing” is a very important aspect when it comes to teaching and learning. I also believe that universities could implement the “learning by doing” aspect into more of their courses.

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

@EM203PJames Hi Patrick! It really is incredible how we can teach and learn through so many different mediums in today’s world. Technology is incredible. Also, congratulations on completing a hard Sudoku Puzzle!

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

@AfkhanE Nice to hear that you were able to develop some multi-tasking skills after that one experiment. Personally, that experiment was eye opening for me, as I learned how ineffective my study and work periods are if I am multitasking.

[Maya Day @EM203MDay]

@EM203priyankak I like your point about “how perceptions and ideas are shaped through one’s experiences”. I believe individuals are much more likely to learn when they are active in their learning rather than just sitting and listening to someone teach.
