From Digital Exclusion to Digital Inclusion for Adult Online Learners
Abstract
There is an alarming attrition rate of adult students in distance education programs because of socio-economic, gender, and technology factors. In the United States, digitally excluded online adult learners include the poor, mostly women, who have minimal technology skills. This chapter provides some solution strategies for ICT directors, higher education administrators, online instructors, and the older students they serve. With technology training and financial assistance, adult online learners can be motivated to succeed.
