description |
The contributors to this volume make a crucial and forceful point. There are
numerous theories and methodologies that can be used to yield research findings
about the potential of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to make
a positive difference in people’s lives. Whether the findings in any particular
research project actually contribute in this way depends on multiple factors, some
affecting researchers themselves, others on whether actors beyond university-based
research communities are interested and have the resources that are necessary for
learning. It is not only researchers for whom capacity building is essential. It is
essential that all the actors who have an interest in whether digital ICTs are produced
and used in beneficial ways have the capacity to learn about how they can make a
difference in people’s lives. The need to build capacity for learning from a range of
types of evidence developed by both researchers and practitioners applies as much

civil society. This volume illustrates this extremely well... |
