Equity and Technology

The article Critical Issue: Ensuring Equitable Use of Education Technology,  written by Rosemary Bell for the North Central Regional Technology in Education Consortium published in 1997, confronts the issue of how can the use of technology be equitable for all students.  The main concern communicated in this article is that students who attend low income schools may already be struggling with their studies and with the integration of technology these schools may not have the funds to purchase up to date tools, therefore these students are falling farher behind the learning curve.  For more details and links to resources go to:
