Addressing the Digital Divide

Addressing the Digital Divide

The Digital Divide is the gap between people with access to digital technology and those who don’t. There has been an increase in the use of computer technology over the last ten years. In my classroom I want to make sure each student learns how to use the internet for finding resource sites and how to use Microsoft Office. A also want to bring in other technology sources for our teachers to use in their classroom. In my class I will teach students to respect others on the internet and to be safe. They will learn how to find access to technology and find resources for technology.
With the technology today almost all disabilities can be put aside and children can learn to communicate, work, and learn with little trouble. I want to use these technologies in my class so every student will have the same opportunity to learn.
