Current challenges teaching undergraduate first year physics in Canada

I will talk about the challenges of teaching first year physics in 2026 to undergraduate students in computer science and engineering in Canada. Topics will include issues with textbook publishers (online vs physical books), open access textbook/homework systems, teaching, learning and setting evaluations, labs and homework in the era of AI, student attitudes towards learning, academic accommodation for disabilities, etc. This seminar could be interesting to those of you who will face teaching in your future, especially abroad. Although my perspective is based on physics and Canada, a number of issues raised are broadly relevant to other fields and countries.
