Learn

Learning is a central focus of the Athabasca University e-Lab. The e-Lab's open online courses, short courses, tutorials, and educational resources offer opportunities for faculty and students and university partners to engage in a variety of learning experiences, such as Digital Storytelling, the history and impact of social media, and digital media editing. Learning experiences here may be formal or informal and taken for a range of credits or simply for self-improvement.

Students and faculty can also discover digital research tools and online resources through the Tool Cupboard, including tools developed by Athabasca University researchers.

The e-Lab is also the home of several online resources, such as the Canadian Film Online database and MediaCan, a collection of academic resources for studying Canadian media.
