The Digital Divide is the gulf between those who have ready access to computers and the Internet, and those who do not. "a worrying “digital divide” based on educational attainment and income".

COVID-19 has bought this issue to the forefront with school closing.

According to https://www.pewtrusts.org "The Pew Research Center reported in May 2019 that 44 percent of adults in households with incomes below $30,000 don’t have broadband. This disparity in access is also seen in what researchers call the “homework gap”—the differences between school-age children who have access to high-speed internet at home and those who don’t. A 2015 center report found that 35 percent of lower-income households with children in school didn’t have a broadband connection at home."

Eli Cortez former CIO of California and CTO of LAUSD (second largest school district in the country offers unique insights and proposals on how to close the digital divide during the Coronavirus and the future.
