Abstract Michelle Selinger

Social and cultural issues in promoting effective lifelong learning

Dr. Michelle Selinger, Education Manager at Cisco Systems

Relevant skills, opportunities for the socially disadvantages and the ability to access relevant and timely learning targeted at the individual will make for effective lifelong learning. In this presentation I will consider how ICT can help meet these goals for lifelong learning, what is the role of the corporate sector and what are social and cultural issues that have to be addressed?
