Digital Divide Ideas


I often get random emails in my work inbox that I never get the chance to look at. This morning I decided to do a bit of a cull and took a look at a BBC World Service email which had a section on the digital divide in the world.

The kids I teach are very privaleged and have lots of new Macs. They probably also have at least one computer in the house. So, I wander if they would be interested in seeing what it slike on the other side of the digital divide. I'm going to find out if this BBC World Service video stirs any thoughts in the 6th graders minds. Its about a small village in India where a lone computer is installed in a whole in a wall.
