Description
"Securing the benefits from computer and internet use is a challenge in the remote Indigenous community context. First and foremost, people's limited access, previous use, and awareness of the relevance of computers and the internet to their lives, are significant factors. Despite these obstacles, there is much interest and curiosity about computers and the internet, particularly in terms of children's education, access to services, administration and entertainment." -- Taken from conclusion on page 59.,
