The Near North District School Board (NNDSB) has announced that it will be offering online Ojibwe language courses for students at schools from 56 different school boards that are part of the Ontario eLearning Consortium. The course is designed so that students who have no knowledge of Ojibwe will be able to learn to speak the language. “Upon entering the online classes and following along attentively with the materials I share, students can go from no awareness of the Nipissing dialect to being able to express conservatively hundreds of thousands of sentences in Ojibwe with one out of four types of the verb classes,” said instructor Falcon McLeod. Students who complete the course will receive credit for it.
