Hi,

I agree about platforms like Discord or even Reddit! Do you see any challenges in the amount of content being overwhelming or having a hard time navigating real vs misinformation?  I wish there was more widespread information on how to have healthy relationships with those platforms. Maybe embedded into the site welcome when you first sign up. I think of Reddit as a learning platform, I find great info on niche or random topics.  I enjoyed reading your blog, and I am looking forward to the next one.  The video you included about constructivism was a great addition helped piece it all together!

Your reflection shows a great balance of direct learning and collaborative learning. I love your example of the clinical psychology class; I agree! On top of a case study, in a class like psych where real world experience benefits learning, something great to add would be simulation or role-playing circumstances to get practice. For digital learning, do you think there’s a way to combat the feeling of being overwhelmed by information overload? I think having good boundaries with screen time and unfollowing all the “noise” really helps! I love how visually appealing your post is. I love the chart and key takeaways. I look forward to reading your next blog!

It’s so great to hear from a teacher’s perspective first-hand. I love how you gave examples for each learning theory. It’s great to hear that you can help struggling students by giving them a different approach to learning such as authentic problems to be able to connect to real-life situations this is something that I hope to do in a teaching setting of making sure that every student learns in the way that best fits their learning style. It’s great to hear that teachers are aware that it’s important not to subscribe to only a single theory of learning, instead, we must consider that everyone learns differently. Also, some students may be better at one subject over another.

I look forward to reading your next blog post

Hi Percy,

Nice to hear from you.

I love your use of visual cues to help further explain what you shared in your writing. I love the modes of learning picture; I am a visual learner, so that image stuck with me. Your take on blended learning was great to read about, I agree that it is important for us to consider vulnerable groups and support them. I’m glad that we will be working together this semester. To effect change, we must continue to ask questions on how we can consider accessible learning and diversity every step of the way. It’s great to hear that there are platforms that offer resources to students online. I’ve never heard of OpenStax before.

Cant wait to read your next blog post.

Hi Amira, I love how you included an informative video in your post. Using AI-generated photos is super cool and adds a lot to your post! I appreciate your knowledge of your digital footprint. It is great how you highlight that it could negatively impact future opportunities. Keeping your digital identity polished can also positively affect future opportunities and connect you with like-minded individuals. I enjoyed getting to know a bit more about you, especially because you like to keep your digital identity private! It is nice to see how at the end of your blog, you tie it back to this course and what you can learn. I am also excited to learn more about inclusive learning environments!

Looking forward to your next blog post!
