For many Indigenous Nations and organizations, computer-assisted language learning (CALL) courses have become an effective means to support Indigenous language revitalization and reclamation (ILR) efforts. Engaging a methodology of storywork and highlighting relationships between relevant fields of ILR, CALL, and applied linguistics, this article focuses on orthography choice and use in Indigenous language CALL courses. As contributors to three North American Indigenous language courses?-- Chikashshanompa' (Chickasaw) on Rosetta Stone, Kwakwala on 7000 Languages, and Southern Michif for Beginners on 7000 Languages, we offer reflections on community-led processes which addressed tensions and challenges in representing written language in CALL courses. Through reflections, we illuminate the complexity of orthography choice and use in Indigenous language CALL courses and share strategies with others creating their own Indigenous language courses.
