摘要

在过去的几十年里,数字技术在新兴经济体中获得了持续的发展势头。根据获取信息和通信技术(主要是互联网)的情况,当代世界被分为“富人”和“穷人”。这就是所谓的“数字鸿沟”:将全球社会划分为“数字文盲”和“数字文盲”。据说信息通信技术是造成这个问题的主要原因,但同样的技术不仅提供了弥合数字鸿沟的机会,而且还改善了生活,特别是高等教育。本文汇集了研究人员关于发展中国家大学实施在线高等教育以管理数字鸿沟的定义、原因、基于信息通信技术的解决方案和障碍的经验和观点。根据有关数位科技及其在不同领域应用的文献,我们认为资讯通讯科技并非威胁,而是机会,只要能配合巴基斯坦高等教育的人文与非人文背景加以利用。

DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES FOR ONLINE HIGHER-EDUCATION: THE CREATORS AND KILLERS OF DIGITAL DIVIDES
The digital technologies have gained continuous momentum during the last decades in emerging economies. Contemporary world is divided into ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’ on the basis of access to information and communication technologies (ICTs) mainly internet. This is called digital-divide: classification of the global-community into digitally literate and illiterate citizens. ICTs are said to be the main cause of this problem however the same technologies offer opportunities to not only bridge the digital divide but also improve life particularly, higher-education. This paper brings together the experience and viewpoints of researchers about the definition, causes, ICT-based solutions and hurdles in implementing online higher education in the universities to manage digital-divides in the developing countries. Based on the literature about the digital technologies and its application in the different spheres, it is argued that ICTs are not threats rather the opportunities provided they are harnessed in tune with the human and non-human contexts of the higher education in Pakistan.
