As the new academic year begins, it’s essential to recognize that not all young people have equal access to technology and the internet. Despite the common belief that all college students are digitally savvy, many face significant challenges due to the digital divide, particularly those from lower-income families, rural areas, or underserved communities.
On August 29 at 11:00 AM PDT, Community Tech Network will host a webinar titled Digital Inclusion and College Students to shed light on this pressing issue. Our panel, consisting of both college students and digital equity practitioners, will delve into current challenges and share best practices for fostering an inclusive digital environment within higher education.
With most university programs requiring digital proficiency and employers expecting graduates to have core digital skills, it’s more important than ever to address these disparities. Join us to gain insights and learn how we can collectively work towards bridging the digital divide for college students.
All webinar attendees will also be entered into a raffle to win a free enrollment in CTN’s Adult Learning Principles online course, which provides key strategies for effectively teaching new skills to adults.
