I was at a conference in Pakistan last week and during the panel discussion one of the members made the interesting point that many women in Pakistan would not have access to a computer or a private email address (which would always be shared with a husband, if available at all). I was wondering how mobile technology might circumvent this problem to an extent. I saw many women (all, it seemed) with cellphones. This may be one more reason to explore delivery of learning materials in this way. Just something to think about when considering the use of technology for making learning resources available.
