The Children’s Partnership has just released a new report which might be of interest:
Measuring Digital Opportunity for America’s Children: Where We Stand and Where We Go From Here
By Wendy Lazarus and Andrew Wainer with Laurie Lipper
This report is the first-ever look across four key areas to see whether Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is helping children 1) improve educational achievement, 2) lead healthier lives, 3) increase economic opportunity, and 4) participate in their communities. The year-long study also reveals the disparities that have resulted in an “opportunity gap” for millions of low-income and ethnic minority children.
