My name is Qiyue Yuan, and I am a fourth-year Economics student at the University of Victoria. I previously founded an online one-on-one tutoring platform called Edu in Time and promoted it on campus. My experiences in both face-to-face and online learning environments have led me to favor online education for its flexibility and convenience. Though I am relatively new to the concepts of Distributed Education and Open Education, I understand they aim to broaden access to quality resources and remove traditional barriers through digital tools. Digital literacy, in this context, is crucial for effectively finding reliable information, collaborating in virtual spaces, and creating inclusive learning experiences. Furthermore, I recognize the importance of managing my digital identity—particularly on professional platforms like LinkedIn—as it shapes my personal brand and professional prospects. Overall, I look forward to exploring how these educational models, alongside digital literacy, can foster more equitable and engaging learning opportunities for everyone.
