Michael Petty+FollowIs Ed Tech Really Closing the Gap?Turns out, not all students are getting the same shot at digital learning. While some kids have fancy tech and fast Wi-Fi, others are stuck without even basic internet. The digital divide is real, and it’s hitting low-income and rural students the hardest. Ed tech could totally level the playing field, but only if everyone actually gets access—and if the tools are designed for all kinds of learners. Until then, tech might just be making things worse. Wild, right? #EdTech #DigitalDivide #EducationEquity #Education10Share
Mark Pruitt+FollowIs Tech Really Leveling the Classroom?Let’s talk about the digital gap in schools. We all love the idea of every student having a laptop and fast internet, but is that really happening? Some schools are still struggling with just a handful of devices for hundreds of students, while others are fully wired. As tech evolves—think satellite internet and budget-friendly tablets—will these innovations finally close the gap, or just move it? What’s your take on the future of digital equity in education? #DigitalDivide #EdTech #TechEquity #FutureOfLearning #EducationDebate #Tech70Share
Rebecca Cowan+FollowTelehealth’s Wild Growth in MedicareTelehealth in primary care totally exploded for Medicare folks during the pandemic—jumping from just over 1,300 users to nearly 74,000! But get this: it was mostly younger, female, White patients and those with disabilities or kidney disease who used it most. Docs and psychiatrists got in on the action too, but there’s still a big digital divide. More access, more visits, but we’ve gotta fix those tech gaps for everyone to benefit! #Telehealth #Medicare #HealthEquity #DigitalDivide #PrimaryCare #Health40Share
