Emotional Health in the Social Media Era
Emotional Health and the Intersection of Social Media 1. Emotional health has become a complex and multifaceted issue in the context of social media. Best (2014) and Wood (2016) both highlight the potential for both positive and negative impacts of social media on emotional well-being. Sadagheyani (2020) further accentuates this duality. No doubt, social media can provide emotional support and community building but at the same time, it has the potential to contribute to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Choudhury (2014) adds to this discussion by exploring the role of social media in mental health discourse. Anonymity on platforms like Reddit can facilitate open conversations and gather more emotionally engaging feedback.

Spirituality
Introduction: The Spiritual Resurgence 1. The contemporary significance of spirituality is emphasized by its role in meeting the unaddressed needs of individuals in the 21st century (Tacey, 2003). This is particularly evident in the rise of a more personalized religious experience. The diversity of views on spirituality highlights its contemporary relevance (Ramezani, 2016) both in religious and secular spheres. The culture of contemporary spirituality is seen as a potential force for sustainable development, although it also poses specific risks (Witt, 2011). Additionally, the emergence of a new generation of progressive religious thinkers further underlines the contemporary significance of spirituality (Lynch, 2007).

Improve Knowledge
Introduction 1. Continuous learning and knowledge improvement are crucial for both personal and professional growth. Laal (2012) emphasizes the need for lifelong learning to keep skills sharp and adapt to a rapidly changing world. Maurer (2001) further emphasizes the importance of career-relevant learning. Knowledge improvement is particularly essential for older workers who may experience a decline in self-confidence for development. Ericsson (2006) adds that while experience is important deliberate practice and ongoing learning are key to reaching the highest levels of professional mastery. This article collectively highlights the role of continuous learning in maintaining a competitive edge, overcoming barriers, and achieving superior performance.

Holistic Health
Introduction 1. Holistic health encompasses a range of factors like lifestyle, quality of life, and personal growth (Ventegodt, 2004). It considers the whole person, including mind, body, heart and spirit (Wade, 2009). Holistic health improvement can be achieved through a comprehensive understanding of illness, the recognition of social determinants of health, and the implementation of a wide range of interventions (Wade, 2009).

WHO WAS HILDEGARD OF BINGEN AND WHAT WAS THE INFLUENCE OF HER TEACHINGS
Introduction 1. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was a multifaceted figure. She is famous for her contributions to various fields such as theology, medicine, science, and physiology. Her work was deeply rooted in medieval thinking (Brigo 2018). Her visions provide a unique insight into her spiritual and artistic expressions (Fox 1985). A collection of essays on her life and works offers a comprehensive overview of her output, including her reputation and the materiality of the transmission of her works (Bain 2021). Her musical oeuvre including songs for saints, is also a significant aspect of her legacy (Kienzle 2014).

Deep Learning: The Future of Education
1. Educational Data Mining is an analysis field that focuses on the applying of machine learning, information mining and statistical methods to detect patterns in massive collections of instructional information. Various machine-learning techniques have been applied throughout this field over the years. Recently, Deep Learning has gained increasing attention in the academic domain. Deep Learning may well be a machine learning technique supported by neural network architectures with multiple layers of method units. It has been successfully applied to a broad set of problems in the areas of image recognition and language methods. Deep Learning techniques have been applied to Educational Data Mining (EDM), from its origins to the current day. The main goals of this article are to highlight the benefits of Deep Learning, discuss the challenges of implementing Deep Learning in education, the need for deep learning in education and the future of education with deep learning. Benefits of Deep Learning 2. Deep learning has a significant impact on education, particularly in the context of sustainability (Warburton, 2003). It has been increasingly applied in Educational Data Mining (EDM), with a focus on detecting patterns in large educational datasets (Hernández-Blanco, 2019). The use of deep learning in eLearning has also been explored, with a focus on developing resources and creating personalized learning experiences (Muniasamy, 2020). These applications of deep learning in education have the potential to enhance learning outcomes and improve the overall educational experience. Challenges of Implementing Deep Learning in Education 3. The implementation of deep learning in education is a complex and controversial issue, as highlighted by Perrotta (2019). The use of AI elements in online learning environments, while promising, is troubled with challenges such as flawed data, incomprehensible computational methods, and narrow educational knowledge. These issues are further compounded by the reductionist discourse of data science and economic interests. Sharma (2019) adds that the theoretical design and execution of experiments in deep learning are also challenging in implementing deep learning in education. Despite these obstacles, Warburton (2003) emphasizes the importance of deep learning in education for sustainability, suggesting that it can be inhibited by students' existing interests and backgrounds. Therefore, while the potential benefits of deep learning in education are significant, its implementation is hindered by a range of technical, methodological, and pedagogical challenges. The Need for Deep Learning in Education 4. Perrotta (2019) and Kashyap (2020) both discuss the potential of deep learning in education, with Perrotta highlighting the controversy and economic interests surrounding its implementation, and Kashyap focusing on its application in educational data mining. Laevers (1993) provides a practical example of deep-level learning in the context of physical knowledge, emphasizing the importance of involvement in development. These studies collectively underscore the need for a critical and practical approach to the use of deep learning in education. The Future of Education with Deep Learning 5. Deep learning, a subset of artificial intelligence, is poised to revolutionize the future of education, particularly in the realm of eLearning (Muniasamy, 2020). Its potential to enhance higher education by fostering connection and collaboration between students and educators is also highlighted (Weigel, 2001). In the field of Educational Data Mining, deep learning has gained significant attention, with its application to tasks such as pattern detection and language processing (Kashyap, 2020). Furthermore, deep learning is seen as a key strategy in education for sustainability, particularly in encouraging students to use interdisciplinary thinking and holistic insight (Warburton, 2003).
