The key part of this article is the embedded video. Truly worth while watching.
I do have some concerns as a result of reading other research being done in urban areas with families in poverty comparing them with students in more affluent communities. If a student's school has computer access for students living in poverty, the advantages are tremendous....same with families with digital devices with internet access at home. Unfortunately or fortunately , our Title I students come from varied backgrounds ---some with very limited access at school and some with access at home, others no access at all.
So, in viewing the video, let's keep in mind that the trend is moving toward digital learning, but at some of our sites we're not there yet. We can introduce our Title I students to various ways to learn digitally even though they may not be in the "native" territory just yet.
How do you see our Title I students learning digitally? Is it happening at your school? Share you thoughts. How do you think the video fits yourTitle I situation?
