Village eLearning: an offline mobile solution to rural communities knowledge requirement.
In: 24th BCS Interaction Specialist Group Conference, 6-10 Sep 2010, Dundee, UK.
Abstract
This paper presents an offline mobile eLearning concept as an ICT solution to address the knowledge requirements of a rural sub-Saharan farming community. A socio-technical customisation and deployment of WikiReaders is proposed to support offline mobile access to digital content. A future use scenario is presented as a demonstration of cheap but sustainable innovation emerging from a longitudinal evaluation of users, their needs and their context.
