Englo
This tool is aimed for English as an Additional Language (EAL) teachers to use with new post-secondary English Language Learners (ELLs). It is a supplementary tool that can be used by instructors to encourage new ELLs to practice English outside of classrooms to increase engagement with the English language. Follow the link for the concept/proposal for this app and its research foundations.

Strategies for Academic Success
At the best of times, most universities suffer an attrition rate of between 16 and 20% among Canadian high-school students transitioning to first-year. Because of covid-19, students are even less prepared to face online or in-class learning. Done in collaboration with a fellow educator working at MacEwan University, we have created a course offering to help students who have struggled through pandemic. Grounded in current research and best online pedagogical practices, it is designed to train them in the skills to learn, communicate and thrive during their first years at post-secondary institutions and mitigate dropout rates by targeting key factors in attrition.
