This is unconscionable. The FCC votes to impede student learning. The #HomeworkGap is real and Former FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel knows this and championed this cause for ALL students. Shame on those two FCC commissioners. Elections have consequences. www.k12dive.com/news/fcc-rem...
The FCC cut funding for student Wi-Fi hotspots & school bus connectivity—a major blow to closing #HomeworkGap. We stand with All 4 Ed, Ed Trust, Empower Schools, & the NEA, & many others calling for this decision to be reversed

Earlier today, the FCC voted to eliminate funding for Wi-Fi hotspots & school bus connectivity! @all4ed.org we know this decision will rollback progress on closing the #HomeworkGap.

On Sept. 30, the FCC will vote on items that would make school bus Wi-Fi and off-campus hotspots ineligible for E-Rate support. This decision could widen the #HomeworkGap. FCC Open Meeting Agenda: bit.ly/3IDXpes @cosnweb.bsky.social
Without #ERate, 74% of districts would face "a major or catastrophic impact" on operations — with rural (74%) and city (78%) districts most vulnerable per CoSN/SETDA #homeworkgap #education #edpolicy #edfinance
CoSN joined 80+ orgs urging the House to vote NO on S.J.Res.7/H.J.Res.33 — ending E-Rate hotspot funding would disconnect millions, especially in rural & underserved areas - statescoop.com/schools-libr... #DigitalEquity #ERate #HomeworkGap @keithkrueger.bsky.social
Reversing E-rate expansion will be tougher. We urge all to contact Congress to express opposition to Senate joint resolution, S.J.Res.7 -

IMO the #AIGap is compounding the disparity still evident in the ongoing #digitaldivide and #homeworkgap .
I have concerns about how educators & #education will address the #AIGap when we haven’t done a great job with addressing the #digitaldivide & the #homeworkgap . Would Bourdieu have made room for #technologicalcapital in today’s world? #EduSky #AI
Just Released by @All4Ed, @WeAreUnidosUS, @NatUrbanLeague, @WereNIEA—An analysis finds that 16.9 million children age 17 or younger in 8.4 million households do not have high-speed home internet #HomeworkGap https://ctt.ec/P33q3+ https://t.co/jnVKphbQiO
So @CommonSense has put together a state-by-state map that puts a personal spin on the #digitaldivide and the #homeworkgap:
We have to close the #homeworkgap so we can close the achievement gap. Educators are doing their job but need help. @SpeakerPelosi we’re counting on you! Provide at least $5 billion for #Erate
