Liam Lachance

Liam Lachance teaches English Literature and Creative Writing at Dawson College, and has received grants for prose collections related to narration and complex trauma from the Canada Council for the Arts and Montréal’s Concordia University. His recent UDL (Universal Design Learning) fellowship explored ways to ‘pre-wire’ accessibility for activities in the post-secondary classroom, which resulted in tools that improve student memory recall through scheduled review games. Now a Junior Fellow at SALTISE (Supporting Active Learning and Technological Innovation in Studies of Education), he seeks to explore ways to explore potential benefits of ‘wiring-in’ joy and accessibility to writing assignments at the CEGEP level, with special focus on allophone and francophone students who are learning to write in English.
