What has COVID-19 taught us about the digital and opportunity divides in America’s schools?

This live virtual event is hosted by the Brookings Institution.

The Center for Technology Innovation at Brookings will host a webinar on what the coronavirus pandemic has taught us about the digital divide in America’s schools and how the lack of access during this time may result in stifling the social mobility of students left offline. Expert panelists will discuss key lessons learned and highlight the most effective emerging strategies to secure a safe and quality education for every child, even amid a health crisis. Panelists will also discuss how federal, state, and local policymakers should be working together along with philanthropies to address digital disparities and alleviate some of the burdens on students, families, and school districts.
