I am not a teacher but I am a mother and therefore consider myself a full time
educator. My ten year old daughter uses the INTERNET extensively for almost
all her school projects. It is an OPEN classroom and the information is
limetless.
I have noticed that a few of her classmates do not have access to the INTERNET
and there is a disadvantage to that this day and age because many teachers are
asking for information that would otherwise be difficult to obtain. I believe
that a great deal of children coming from disadvantaged socio-economic areas
do not have a great deal of access to the INTERNET.
