Educational Equity Issues in an Information Age

Equity in access to educational resources faces new challenges in our age of rapid technological change, threatening to produce a society of information “haves” and “have-nots” through schools where disparity in access to educational technology is already glaring. These challenges occur at a time when efforts toward the privatization of the “information superhighway” and of public schools themselves have dominated the discourses on public policy. An alternative direction is proposed for equity of access to global learning networks as a catalyst for genuine educational reform that preserves the legacies of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, and Lau v. Nichols.
