Introduction

Five days after kickoff, the first site was up on staging, with all of its content in English and French.

AI for All is Amii’s national AI literacy program, part of Canada’s AI strategy. It teaches the basics of AI to K-12 educators, to post-secondary students and to the public, and its launch date was set by a federal announcement.

Amii wrote the copy and the course content, and Curio Studio created the illustrations. We designed and built the four sites that bring it together, in both official languages.

Four sites, one initiative

Three audiences, each with a site of its own.

Educators, students and the public need different things, so each got its own site and brand treatment, all built on one shared design system. A landing hub ties them together.

Learning built in

Courses that work without an account.

Each chapter is one scrollable page of short lessons and interactions. Progress is saved in the browser, so people can start learning without signing up.

Built with AI

Something real to review, from the first week.

Four people from Lift worked on the project, and most of the build was done by one of them. Without AI, it would have taken three to four months. With it, Amii could review real working sites from the first week, not mockups, and we iterated quickly on their feedback.
