@bankofcanada @mikalskuterud @CanEconomics RT if you think Canada needs better financial literacy and debt education. See more info attached! https://t.co/PhSSWzUDRI

Here is my presentation on my #EM203problem which is low levels of financial literacy and high levels of debt in Canada. Linked here: https://t.co/PhSSWzUDRI

I only received one hour of financial literacy education in high school. In one study, only 15% felt they had strong financial literacy. There are rising debt levels and low financial literacy in Canada. #Em203robin #em203problem

interesting blog on financial literacy in Canada

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

In Grade 11 we had 1 hour of financial literacy education for the entire 4 years of high school. "Canadians have one of the highest debt levels in the world, owing nearly $1.74 for every dollar of income" See this report by the GoC https://t.co/5ssAFe3DWv

@EM203LRobbins a problem I identified in your map was how pharmacists can now prescribe/ treat certain ailments. This could damage the patient doctor relationship, lead to increased prescriptions when unnecessary and slow down the experience at the pharmacy. #EM203problems

As EM203 is an online course. If students were almost entirely self-guided, students could also struggle to motivate themselves.

Guided inquiry (as mentioned earlier in this presentation) is sometimes still necessary to facilitate the learning experience.

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

While clearly learning by doing can have its merits, it is clear some structure is necessary to help guide students along the way. I can see this in the structure of EM203 as a course. While the course itself is very open, it is not a complete “free for all”.

@EM203ntivirikin Hey! Thank you for responding! I definitely prefer learning by doing as it helps me grasp concepts way easier as well! For you, which learning concepts is it not applicable to? @EM203ntivirikin

Hi all! I am starting my "How You Learn" project & decided to get people's perspectives on "Learning by Doing".

I was wondering If you could help with my project by replying to this tweet & sharing some personal experiences/ pros/cons that you see with this method of learning.

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

My learning experiences through cooperative education & business school strongly impacted me. I now gravitate toward "Learning by Doing". This approach has become so ingrained in me, I believe I gravitate toward it subconsciously without active thought. It's become a default.

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

I can see my "Learning by Doing" approach in EM203 in how I approached Twitter. Although I have never had Twitter, I did no research. I just downloaded the app and started playing around with it, following topics I was interested in and adding a bio, banner, and profile picture.

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

Reflecting on my co-op terms, I see the “Learning by Doing” approach is overwhelmingly present in these experiences. Often, I would start a co-op term without training or instructions. You would jump right into your work and figure it out if you didn’t already know it.

[Moni Veronese @em203moniver]

In thinking about how I have taken a learning-by-doing approach in this course, I think it is important to acknowledge how my personal history and experiences have influenced the learning style that I gravitate toward.

@em203Yichina I agree. How education can meet the needs of the learner is interesting. I also found writing the discussion post on what education will look like in 2030 to be really interesting. I think it will change a lot and hopefully in conjunction with the needs of learners. #EM203Robin

@EM203AWeiner What task did you select for your learning by doing the assignment? I learned to knit and it was a little bit of a struggle but I got there in the end after a friend showed me. I definitely would have been worse singing in German. #em203robin
