How People Encounter
E-illiteracy and how they can Take Action to Overcome It
|
Understanding and responding to digital and social exclusion
A two day workshop 11 and 12 December 2006
at Room H216, Connaught House, LSE
This two day workshop will explore both: how we can understand the effects
that non-use of ICTs has on people’s lives and opportunities;
and the experience of education providers in developing new initiatives
to
meet these needs.
The workshop will be interactive and attendees will be expected to participate
in discussion of the issues raised, not just listen to presentations.
The sessions will start with presentations and plenary discussion. There
will be opportunity for small group exploration of the issues raised.
The workshop will end with plenary panel on shaping future research and
practice agendas.
The workshop will be of interest to
- Academic researchers in a number of fields including: ICT
use and non-use; ICT education and training; and social exclusion
- Further and community education managers and teachers in the
fields of ICT and basic education
- Policy makers in the areas of
ICT education and access
There is no charge for the workshop but places are limited
to ensure maximum participation in the discussion. Lunch is provided.
