Digital Equity Blog
Digital equity is a condition in which all individuals and communities have the information technology capacity needed for full participation in our society, democracy, and economy. Digital equity is one of the most complex and urgent issues facing educators. It’s an economic concern, as schools consider how they can ensure equal access for all. I agree with Professor Benjamin when she said that “the goal is not to simply empower our students to success in the world of today, but to give them the tools and opportunities that will allow them to imagine and create alternatives to the current system and culture. Technology is making it easier for students regardless of age, gender, income, or geography to learn anytime, anywhere.
