Description
Findings from a multi-country research study, ReMaLIC (Reaching out to marginalized populations in under-resourced countries), funded by the British Council are presented. Technology use and access among teenagers, their parents, and teachers in low-resource contexts in Asia (Bangladesh and Nepal) and Africa (Senegal and Sudan) were examined. A qualitative approach was adopted and data were collected via semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and classroom observations. Despite limited opportunities most participants expressed favorable attitudes toward technology.
