I just finished dropping off all the cans that I collected for the @downtownmission ! Love giving back to the community and helping to provide for those less fortunate. #candrive #WorldKindnessDay #comp2097

My @UWindsor class Social Media & Mobile Tech (200 students) will be generating student-led conversations about online teaching in a pandemic@7PM tonight. Guests are welcome. Keep it fun. Keep it friendly. No shaming.#UWinCourseIdeas #UWindsor @ONtrainandstudy

A7, My dog Vanna has been an integral part of my virtual learning so far. She is the best study buddy and always knows when I need to take breaks to play with her! #UWinCourseIdeas 🐶🥰❤️

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

@DeanneJacques Dogs are the best!

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

A5,Unequal internet access can make virtual learning more stressful than it already is and with the pandemic there are very few places to use a public wifi outlet. The government can help to provide equal internet access. #UWinCourseIdeas @ONtrainandstudy @CanadianPM @drewdilkens

A6, @UWindsor could cut tuition costs related to having a virtual learning layout this year. Alleviating financial stress related to paying for University during a pandemic could create a positive rapport between students and the University. #UWinCourseIdeas

@DianaMCOMP2097 I totally agree! Tuition costs need to be lowered for an online-based university!

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

@veldhuim I can relate to this! Finding the motivation to get out of bed and watch a pre-recorded lecture can be SUPER challenging some mornings!

A4, Trying to focus while being at home has presented its difficulties. Having so many distractions while trying to study or listen to a lecture has tested my ability to focus. It's been hard trying to work around the business of my family. #UWInCourseIdeas

A3. My favourite activities in online classes are definitely discussion boards! They’re an interactive and interesting way to bounce ideas off of classmates! #UWinCourseIdeas

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

@oliviawagner00 I totally agree! Discussion boards are a great way to get to know people you've never met. Especially in a class as big as @TimothyABrunet 's class!

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

@JacobUWindsor @Twitter @LinkedIn @MicrosoftTeams Thank you! 😀

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

A1, I think by participating, sharing, and connecting with fellow students and teachers using discussion boards and social media like @twitter, @linkedin, and @microsoftteams, you can market yourself and show people what you're like, and who you truly are. #UWinCourseIdeas

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

A3, Discussion board posts, or group discussions in the virtual classroom are a great tool. I think that hearing/reading other people's viewpoints and opinions on a topic can challenge your views and change your thought process about a topic. #UWinCourseIdeas

[Emma Thwaites @emmathwaites_]

@Ceana66155897 These are awesome ideas! It's really interesting to see how many students neglect to engage through using the camera and microphone features during lecture!
