Addressing the digital divide in education
As education delivery continues to adapt to and include new forms of online learning, having access to the tools that allow for digital inclusion has never been more important.
While the educational benefits of internet access are well documented, especially when physical access to classrooms is difficult, a sizeable segment of the population remains excluded from the advantages of online learning because of the upfront costs involved.
Without the internet, Crescat Digital would not exist. We are keenly aware of the value ICT brings to the world and want to ensure all children are equipped to embrace the opportunities that come with digital literacy.
