More than ever, access to health care in French is a challenge for francophone minorities in Canada. Less than 1% of health-care professionals regularly speak French as part of their practice, according to a 2021 Statistics Canada study on language use in health care. Many francophones must therefore use their English to access health care.

Cameron Smith, a fourth-year PhD candidate in the Faculty of Education, recalls a childhood in Europe immersed in a linguistic “hat trick” of English, French and German. This early introduction to multiple languages, he says, evolved into a career teaching French as a second language (FSL) and fuelled a curiosity about teachers’ experiences using devices in the classroom.

For a long time, it was thought that amorphous solids do not selectively absorb light because of their disordered atomic structure. However, a new uOttawa study disproves this theory and shows that amorphous solids actually exhibit dichroism, meaning that they selectively absorb light of different polarizations.
