30 Mapping Traditional Territories and Indigenous communities across Turtle Island? There's an app for that. Whose.Land is an interactive web application that shares the history of the land, the traditional and current territories of Indigenous people as well as treaties. It includes video messages of land acknowledgments and content based on over a year of intense research, interviews and fact-checking with over 500 communities. This initiative was created in partnership with Canadian Roots Exchange and Bold Realities. It is a base of knowledge for Reconciliation and a resource to facilitate meaningful acknowledgement of the land and its history. The app is available on the iOS and Google Play stores, and also available online at www.whose.land F O S T E R I N G C R E AT I V I T Y A N D D I G I TA L S K I L L S Learning New Technology in New Ways The Code to Learn program, designed to help Canadians not just learn to code but code to learn, launched new resources to teach computational thinking, MicroWorlds coding and Micro:bit.
