Abstract:There has been much discussion about digital equity during the pandemic, and a horrific figure from the Office for Students (OfS) (2021) report was 104,000 students in England with no access at all to the internet. Faculty share stories of students (and staff) sitting on the top of their staircases with their mobile phones, and trying to gain access to meetings, workshops and classes. 52% of students surveyed by the OfS report their learning impacted by slow or unreliable internet connections; 71% reported lack of quiet study space, with 22% severely impacted; and 18% impacted by lack of access to computer, laptop or tablet.
