Digital divide & challenges to implementation

The digital divide: barriers to e-learning (pdf 300kb)

This report looks into the evaluation undertaken to assess the barriers to e-learning opportunities for women, people with a disability and indigenous people in metropolitan and regional areas.

The study is designed to provide a better understanding of those barriers, recommendations to overcome them and to explore gaps in three factors associated with the digital divide: connectivity, capability and content.
