The purpose of this chapter is to describe educational barriers confronting incarcerated college students in the age of digitalization. This chapter will also explore how to mitigate barriers to developing 21st century competencies. Many incarcerated college students are academically disenfranchised due to the lack of access to essential modern learning modalities for traditional college students. Failure to provide incarcerated students with adequate 21st century competencies may impede their successful reintegration into society.
