Today, on Canada’s National Day of Observance of COVID-19, we pause to remember the lives lost, the communities changed, and the collective resilience that emerged during an unprecedented global crisis. The pandemic reshaped how the world learns, connects, and collaborates. For schools, universities, and training organizations, the shift to remote learning happened almost overnight. During that time, platforms like BigBlueButton with the hosting support of Blindside Networks became essential for continuity in education, helping teachers continue their classes, students stay connected to peers, and institutions uphold their commitment to learning. Let us reflect on the importance of access to education in times of crisis, on the inequities the pandemic exposed, and on the responsibility we share to build resilient, inclusive systems for the future. We honor those we lost and acknowledge the educators, learners, healthcare workers, and community members whose strength carried us through. #NationalDayOfObservance #COVID19 #RemoteLearning #OnlineLearning #EdTech #DigitalEquity #BigBlueButton #BlindsideNetworks

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day and recognize the women who shape our teams, our technology, and our communities. International Women’s Day is a reminder that access to education and opportunity is not evenly distributed. As a company focused on virtual classrooms and online collaboration, we believe inclusive technology plays an important role in expanding access and that building it responsibly requires diverse teams at the table. We recognize and celebrate the achievements of women in our organization, the open-source community, and the global education community we serve. Thank you for the expertise, leadership, and care you bring to your work and for helping create spaces where more voices can be heard. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2026 #WomenInTech #WomenInEducation #InclusiveTechnology #DigitalEquity #BigBlueButton #BlindsideNetworks

We’re excited to share that Fred Dixon, CEO of Blindside Networks and co-founder of BigBlueButton, was featured on this week’s episode of The Moodle Podcast, “Truly Active Learning: Empowering Modern Classrooms with Fred Dixon”! In this podcast, Fred shares Blindside Network’s mission to eliminate the "back of the classroom" in digital spaces, arguing that virtual learning should never be a passive experience like watching a YouTube video. He dives deep into the science of active learning and why "purposeful struggle" is the essential "burn" required for neural pathways to actually change. Fred provides a candid take on the rise of AI in education, warning that while it is a powerful tool for educators to gain back time, it risks becoming "ultra-processed food" for students, leading to cognitive offloading rather than true mastery. Whether you’re an educator, edtech enthusiast, or lifelong learner, this conversation is packed with ideas you won’t want to miss.

This past weekend wrapped up our attendance at the EU Open Source Policy Summit, where BigBlueButton was proud to be a Production Partner. It was an exciting event that brought together policymakers, industry leaders, and open source advocates to explore how open source is shaping Europe’s digital future. From open infrastructure and digital sovereignty to AI, public sector innovation, and collaborative standards, the conversations highlighted the growing role open source plays in building resilient, transparent, and competitive digital ecosystems. BigBlueButton powered the live stream for the event, helping extend these important discussions beyond the room. The stream peaked at 154 concurrent users, with a total of 207 attendees joining online to follow and engage with the sessions. Thank you to the organizers, speakers, and everyone who joined remotely and in person to make this a meaningful and impactful event. We’re excited to continue supporting open, accessible platforms for collaboration and policy discussions across Europe and globally! #BigBlueButton #OpenSource #EUOpenSourceSummit #DigitalSovereignty #OpenInfrastructure #PolicyAndTech
