Abstract

Provision of equitable access to information communication technologies along with associated education and training has become an important United Nations goal. This book provides information and seeks to stimulate discussion on many of the important aspects of ICT in relation to equity and education. Recognising the interconnected nature of equity issues with ICT in education, the book follows a structure that uses broad parts with sections rather than chapters. Each part provides evidence from the current and past literature but, where possible, also provides details of original research. The parts of the book include gender and ICT; intellectual disability and ICT; assistive technology; digital divide - including socioeconomic factors and rurality; software and hardware developments and finally knowledge and technology transfer.
