In looking to address SDG4 to promote inclusive and equitable quality education for all, the volume explores the challenges relating to educational exclusion by considering how specially-abled students have been impacted by the digital divide in the context of the pandemic. It puts a spotlight on the approaches, experiences, and case analyses from various geographies in the region to study transitions in inclusivity. Universities and institutes of higher education have had to reconsider their digital offerings and services all the more since the onset of the pandemic, but have, in many instances, failed to fully account for how Internet access can be limited, unavailable, or unaffordable for many students. As a result, specially-abled learners students without sufficient technological resources, such as those living in remote areas where there are little or no Internet facilities have been, however unintentionally, neglected. While universities implemented their own practices, processes and policies to reach, and teach, disadvantaged learners, they had to further adapt these strategies, re-aligning them to meet the unprecedented circumstances, and concomitant needs, of specially-abled learners and there is still much more to do. This book consolidates regional perspectives on how to work towards goals of inclusivity, and bridge the digital divide, looking into, and beyond, the conditions of the pandemic. Relevant to scholars and policymakers, this book is of interest to those focused on digitisation and the transition to the new normal in higher education. 001483977 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 21, 2023). 001483977 650_6 $$aIntégration scolaire. 001483977 650_6 $$aEnseignement supérieur. 001483977 650_6 $$aFossé numérique. 001483977 650_0 $$aInclusive education.$$zUnited States$$0(DLC)sh2008104331 001483977 650_0 $$aEducation, Higher.$$xEducation (Higher)$$0(DLC)sh 85001949 001483977 650_0 $$aDigital divide.$$zUnited States$$0(DLC)sh2009123375 001483977 650_0 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-$$xInfluence. 001483977 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001483977 7001_ $$aMore, Bhakti,$$eeditor. 001483977 7001_ $$aBiju, Seena,$$eeditor. 001483977 7001_ $$aPallath, Vinod,$$eeditor. 001483977 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9819950759$$z9789819950751$$w(OCoLC)1388319578 001483977 852__ $$bebk 001483977 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-5076-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001483977 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1483977$$pGLOBAL_SET 001483977 980__ $$aBIB 001483977 980__ $$aEBOOK 001483977 982__ $$aEbook 001483977 983__ $$aOnline 001483977 994__ $$a92$$bISE
