A scheme aimed at getting digitally excluded people online is set to benefit adult learners in the Highlands by Gregor White, Ross-Shire Journal.
The
move comes after the adult learning team at High Life Highland (HLH)
was successful with a funding application to the Scottish Council for
Voluntary Organisations in phase two of an initiative called Connecting
Scotland.Photo: Andrea Piacquadio from Pexels
It will provide access to devices – mainly iPads and Chromebooks – for people who otherwise would be disadvantaged.
The application secured funding for 20 devices and will mean that the adult learning team can continue its digital approach to supporting learners, helping them take advantage of technology...
"These devices could not have come at a better time as we return to some restricted face-to-face learning and support these learners with the new devices and skills to use them.”
