The purpose and objective of this presentation is to explore what it takes to bridge the digital divide in K-12 education beyond providing physical access to devices and broadband. Participants will explore components of the Model of Equitable Technology Access and how each component is necessary and what is needed to address equitable access inside and outside of classrooms/schools.
The time will vary based on how long of a presentation I am allowed (45 min, and hour)
- review of the research and address how overwhelming, even though the questions focused on physical access the converstations continued to bring up other components of addressing the digital divide (motivation/attitude, digital skills, and usage)
- share the Model of Equitable Technology and the Utah Equitable Access of the Digital Divide framework and talk through how they can be used when planning for and talking about what can be done to bridge the digital divide
- provide opportunities for participants to talk in small groups and share ideas/thoughts via a backchannel using Padelt - about what they do to address motivation/attiude, digital skills, physical access, usage.
- bring group together and talk through what was shared on the padlet as well as allow participants to ask questions and share out.
