The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program at the University of Edinburgh asked some of its students to share their experiences of being enrolled in online learning programmes at our university. 

Fred Kakooza, one of our MSc Digital Education students, expresses his thoughts on how the online setting of the programme is allowing him to engage with our "very experienced and resourceful" academics. Gratefulness for the flexibility of online learning and excitement for the possibility to become part of a community of academics and practitioners from around the world are shared by many of the Mastercard Foundation Scholars.
