Abstract

The overall objective of this paper is to present a IGUAL project solution used to improve the accessibility of higher education in Latin America for students from public schools. There is a measurable gap between the quality of education between private and public schools in most Latin American countries. This project will propose innovative, contextualised solutions, based on proved learning technologies, to help students with a public school background to rapidly close the gap and compensate for handicaps in their basic education. The specific objective of this project is to create and validate innovative and contextualised solutions to reduce the knowledge and skill gap between private- and public-educated students. These solutions will help the student to acquire new knowledge and skills, providing individually directed support based on the particular background and profile of the student. And also have the potential to be used by all students in the Latin American.
