"We should help children navigate how to use the internet in the same way we help teach children how to cross the road. We can’t – and don’t want to – prevent children from crossing the road just because it presents dangers..." https://t.co/1Cxmd567mm #DigitalSkills
The #5G hype is just that -- hype. It's not going to solve the #DigitalDivide, especially not if it's used as a justification to greenlight bad mergers that will actually RAISE prices on those who can least afford it.
@CheaKristika Wow. The first high tech census? I hope it doesnt crash or get hacked. That kind of sensitive info would be devastating if in the hands of the wrong people. #ci3342#socialmedialearning#digitaldivide
@DanaCasella2 They even keep their schools open longer and on saturdays for this 😩 the dedication! Part of closing the gaps are people that really care and want to truly make a difference in the lives of children. These are skills and tools they’ll need as they grow. #ci3342#digitaldivide
@adams_kylen Looking at a screen all day to do my homework now hurts me haha. I like to print all of our readings. I hope that people don’t depend too much on technology either for simple things like that. However I understand the need to promote healthy and well informed digital citizens!
I found this article to be interesting and it poses the question of how to do tackle this "homework gap" where homework is generally online now #ci3342#SocialMediaLearning#DigitalDivide

This def goes back to the lessons on what a #digcit is also. #ci3342#socialmedialearning is more than just using tech tools, it’s about using them strategically.
“Having devices and connectivity is one thing. Using those tools to successfully drive digital age learning... and help students become respectful digital citizens is something else altogether.” There’s More to #DigitalEquity Than Devices and Bandwidth https://t.co/tCy8ENezhJ
#ci3342#SocialMediaLearning A company in Australia is helping to bridge the #DigitalDivide by giving free SIM cards and data to youth in need, & allowing other users to donate their unused data to the cause. What do you guys think of this cool initiative?

Kids will always find a way to get what they want esp in this day of pop culture. Supporting them and fostering healthy relationships with them to understand what they’re viewing and how they’re feeling is much more important. #ci3342#socialmedialearning

"Our work clearly showed us that gender inequality in education (incl issues with access, educational experience, outcome, rewards) is a global problem ... especially if we think intersectionally" #FemEdTech#LTteaching#OnlineLearning
Parents now have such a bigger responsibility to have these kinds of relationships with their children in this digital world. #digcit#ci3342#socialmedialearning
