On January 15, 2020 in Halifax, N.S., Nelson announced its partnership with Mount Saint Vincent University’s Faculty of Education to deliver Edwin, the digital learning ecosystem to all MSVU undergraduate and graduate Education students. This partnership continues an Edwin Pilot Program which has already delivered nearly 3,000 Edwin devices to Nova Scotia Grade 6 students.

Dr. Antony Card, Dean of Education at MSVU, welcomed Cathy Montreuil, Deputy Minister of Education and Early Childhood Development, and Nelson CEO Steve Brown to a panel of educators who are using Edwin to level the learning playing field. Each shared insights about what this newfound equality in the classroom can do…

“So socioeconomics should never be a barrier to education. Education is a right.”

Steve Brown
Nelson CEO

“I often remind people, in education when we start arguing ‘this, or this…’ and turn things into dichotomies, we’re wrong. This isn’t about ‘technology or paper.’ It’s about both.”

Cathy Montreuil
Deputy Minister of Education and Early Childhood Development

“Edwin does things differently so that our teachers can do different things.”

Al Reyner
Instructor and Edwin Pilot Lead, Mount Saint Vincent University
