More than half of world's population does not have reliable access to the Internet. At the same time, educational resources are more multimedia-based than ever (bandwidth) and often hosted on centralised cloud-based platforms requiring a good Internet connection.
Inability to use online education in underconnected regions is particularly prominent in the case of MOOCs, where some researchers argue it may lead to even further global digital divide.
Are you aware of research or cases of making online educational materials/courses (e.g. MOOCs) available in underconnected areas?
