Check out the supposedly responsive e-learning project – an iterative process, to say the least.
A1: de facto m-learning

I of settler descent acknowledge the relationship to the land I live and work in, this land called Canada is everywhere unceded traditional, and ancestral. Many Cree, Dene, Blackfoot, Saulteaux, Nakato Sioux, and Metis' footsteps have marked Treaty 6 lands for generations. I am on the journey towards reconciliation, learning about the shared past, listening to Indigenous truths, and pursuing a more inclusive, collaborative and respectful path towards a better future for all. My specialization in Teaching English as a Second Language has allowed me to engage with various cultures in Canada, a few Indigenous Nations, and France. For the last decade and some, I have worked in Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC). For most of this time, I have been engaged with forcibly displaced individuals with interrupted formal education. However, during the pandemic, I have been virtually instructing a mainstream class of tertiary-educated LINC clients.

Elizabeth raises some key points about mobility and accessibility for all. I especially appreciate that she addresses our growing population and how designing specifically for phone connectivity better meets the needs of ALL of our citizens, including immigrants and those living in poverty. In creating mobile learning cultures, we need to remember that designing in platforms that don’t easily translate beyond a laptop, we are contributing to a potentially elitist/tiered learning system – albeit unintentionally.
