With the touch of a button on their smart phones or personal devices, students can access current social issues and even customize their focus on specific ones. iQed can also connect students with their elected representatives thanks to geolocation technology that provides politicians’ names, parties, views, and contact information.

With iQed, elementary school students and educators can use democratic technology in their classrooms to explore the world of politics and answer essential questions.

What is a democracy?
How do voters make informed decisions at election time?
How are laws made?
How can laws be changed for the betterment of society?

At iMatr, we also remove the navigational challenges of contacting the elected officials who make decisions on our behalf. With its geolocation technology, students in classrooms across Canada can reach out to their elected representatives about any issue of concern in their communities. We believe educating young minds on critical issues such as governance can never start early enough. With iQed, youth are actively engaged in what makes a true democracy, where every voice matters.

Post-Secondary Education keyboard_arrow_down

Post-secondary students and professors can now use democratic technology with a touch of a button on their smartphones or personal devices. iQed uses geolocation to reveal the political representatives for each student in their home riding. Students receive the politicians’ names, parties, positions, and contact information. The iMatr platform presents current issues relevant to society in the form of IQs (Inquiries/Questions) that students can access. They can also create their own IQs for others to answer to spark discussion. As Canadians with the power to vote, post-secondary students can not only research and comment on election issues but communicate directly with politicians about them. With iQed, young voters can become active in the democratic process and make informed decisions at election time to improve our society.
