dc.description.abstractThis report explores innovative uses of digital technology to support and deliver teacher development in low-income countries and disadvantaged regions while utilising global MOOC provision. The report emphasizes flexibility, sustainability, and cultural sensitivity through social media, emerging pedagogies, and technological solutions. It addresses the challenges of delivering scalable, cost-effective solutions while working with diverse, hard-to-reach communities. Recommendations include the need to promote resilient, adaptable learning that avoids privileging already advantaged groups. Strategies include improving MOOC platforms, leveraging local technologies, and developing community-specific resources. The report, co-authored by Professor John Traxler and Dr Betty Ogange, underscores the need to decolonize the curriculum and emphasizes a gradual, inclusive approach to change. It aims to balance global digital resources with sustainable local practices, encouraging lifelong learning and professional development for teachers in underserved areas.
