New Pathways to PH

We’re thrilled to announce that Programming Historian en français’ resources are now discoverable via Florilège, a Chaire RELIA initiative to index a vast collection of francophone Open Education Resources.

« Nous visons à soutenir un public qui manque de ressources disponibles et accessibles dans leur langue. Notre ambition est de permettre à toujours plus de lecteurs/lectrices de découvrir nos leçons : faire partie du répertoire Florilège est donc un pas très important dans cette direction. »
- Entretien avec Programming Historian
