The digital gap in remote learning

from 1 big thing · host Axios

We’re a year into virtual schools - but the digital divide when it comes to our students still hasn’t been fixed. Consider this: 12 million students in this country don’t have internet access or the proper devices needed to do school online. As some schools start to reopen for in-person classes, there's a danger that the digital divide will again be ignored. Plus, former President Trump’s second impeachment trial begins. And, how a showdown over real estate commission could upend the industry.  Guests: Axios' Margaret Harding McGill, Jennifer Kingson and Kadia Goba. Credits: "Axios Today" is produced in partnership with Pushkin Industries. The team includes Niala Boodhoo, Sara Kehaulani Goo, Dan Bobkoff, Carol Wu, Nuria Marquez Martinez, Naomi Shavin and Alex Sugiura. Music is composed by Evan Viola.
