My Concern With Technology

I love technology and I use it a lot in my classroom, but all of these one on one initiatives worry me. For two years I worked at a Title 1 school in Alaska. Many of my students (myself included) did not have access to Internet at home. I work in Northern Illinois now and I am still amazed at how many of my students do not have Internet a home.

My main concern is that students will not have equal access to technology. I understand and see the benefits of technology in education, but we also need to be careful. Requiring technology in order for our students to be successful will quickly create a financial divide.
