Me, a political science major, settling in to hear everyone debate politics over Christmas dinner. Thanks for the sweater @norm 🎄

A new era! Canada will now have a new Commissioner for Modern Treaty Implementation. This will strengthen relationships and ensure lasting accountability.

[Prime Minister of Canada @CanadianPM]

Today, Prime Minister Trudeau, joined by Indigenous Modern Treaty Partners and Self-Governing Indigenous Governments, announced the creation of the new role of Commissioner for Modern Treaty Implementation. Details: https://t.co/IBePBtAxx9

Less than a year after being denied by the Passenger Transportation Board, Uber is once again seeking to acquire a license that would permit it to operate in Victoria and Kelowna.

@SpottedLaurier Actually, the Athletic Complex has updated all their policies! You can have a limit of 3 no shows in a week and the policy is that you have to cancel 2 hours in advance! Hope that helps :)

Which solution to gender equity in girls’ education do you think can make the greatest impact?

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

Hi @girlsalliance! As an organization that advocates for empowering girls through education, what are the key contributing factors to education inequity and how do we spark a conversation around the barriers that prevent girls from reaching their full potential? #EM203Robin

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

Hi @dayleythought! I would love to hear your thoughts on potential solutions towards eradicating educational barriers girls and women face around the world, especially with regards to COVID-19! #EM203Robin

The problem I identified is obesity in youth. This article by the Government of Canada explains the health problems of childhood obesity and provides tips for eating healthy and staying physically active. https://t.co/PTLjdYnmhd

Very interesting to examine the ways in which others interact with my tweets and Twitter account. The different ways Twitter shows the info (statistics, bar graphs, visuals) is a great reflection of the course and the different ways we can communicate information! #Em203Robin

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

One of the solutions for gaining equality for girls' education around the world is the implementation and advocation for improved water, sanitation, and hygiene for girls! #EM203Robin

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

An interesting link from the WB addressing barriers to girls' education, particularly how COVID-19 is negatively impacting girls' health and well-being!

Covid's next big flash point: vaccine passports that allow travel and freedom for the vaccinated. The ethical and political risks are high. https://t.co/sc9cypERbj

@karleysider Financial issues may affect girl’s education #EM203problems

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

@em203orlamolloy Hi Orla! One thing I would add to your concept about lack of quality of education is political leadership! Successful education requires good policy design and implementation strategies #EM203problems

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

@JacklinHunter Hi Hunter! One thing I would look into for your concept map is adding “teacher training” under equity or accessibility (for things like class management skills, etc) #EM203problems

[Karley Sider @karleysider]

@SophieD30042959 Hi Sophie! Another issue you could add to your concept map is access to mental health resources, like counseling! #EM203problems

@EM203Pirranavan Hi Pirranavan! I agree, I enjoyed diving into the theory of constructivism. I've really appreciated the different approaches to learning even within the course as well (Dr. Persad posting graphs, TedTalks, discussion posts, articles, etc.). It's a great reflection of the content!

@EM203ebraun Hi Erin - I love your enthusiasm! I felt the same way when I learned how to knit a 5x5 square. It was definitely something a little intimidating at first but I loved how it forced me outside my comfort zone and to think outside the box.
