| Tóm tắt: | Higher education institutions are increasingly relying on digital technologies that require internet access to support learning and teaching, particularly from a distance. Disadvantaged student groups that are financially unable to afford technology and broadband access or are prohibited from accessing the internet, such as incarcerated students, are often excluded as a result. This project will develop and trial a sustainable and innovative learning management system (LMS) called Stand- Alone Moodle (SAM) that is able to operate without internet access. SAM will enable institutions to provide these students with similar course materials, activities and support available to traditional students, thereby improving the quality of the student learning experience. SAM will be trialled within a Queensland correctional centre and evaluated using a design-based research methodology. The findings and recommendations from the project will be disseminated to learning institutions and correctional centres across Australia to encourage equitable access to education for disadvantaged students. |
