The Bangkok Refugee Learning Center provides an education for urban refugees who would otherwise not receive one. This project sought to improve the BRLC, primarily by designing a computer literacy course. We conducted experimental classes to revise and improve the curriculum we developed. We produced twelve computer skills lessons and an online resource guide to provide additional educational material. We also provided a set of recommendations for improving the BRLC.
