Title: The Biology Video Documentary Project Collection
Description: The Biology Video Documentary Project Collection is a collection of engaging, documentary videos (and transcripts) that relay scientific evidence on a topic of everyday interest to a lay audience. These learning artifacts are a fun way for the broader UTSC community to learn about a variety of interesting biology topics. These documentaries are short (less than 5mins) and represent outstanding work produced by UTSC students in our BIOC90H (Integrative Multimedia Documentary Project) course. The collection includes documentaries from 2021-2022 and will continue to grow each following academic year. For more information on these collections please contact: Dr. Aarthi Ashok: aarthi.ashok@utoronto.ca or dsu.utsc@utoronto.ca

Title: Sunset Photo Collage
Description: My collage of the sunset photographs deeply reflects my own understanding of health during the COVID-19 global pandemic. My personality is very extroverted, so when we all began to quarantine and isolate, it affected my mental health greatly. In each photograph, I put the date to remember what each day was like and refer back to them to realize how far I’ve come on my mental health journey. Out of the many bad days I have survived during quarantine, these were a few pictures I captured which made me feel better. This had made me come to a realization that although I cannot see my friends to make myself feel better, the fresh air, watching sunsets and starting to take interest in photography became my new coping mechanisms. I realized that taking care of yourself doesn’t always mean you need medicinal treatment. It’s important to take fresh air when you can, and enjoy nature to feel at peace. This was definitely one of the biggest lessons COVID-19 had taught me because while you are not physically infected with the virus, during quarantine the only things you could possibly do is go for walks and drives.
