Welcome—The Children's Partnernship—Measuring Digital Opportunity for America's Children

Welcome—The Children's Partnernship—Measuring Digital Opportunity for America's Children:

"Measuring Digital Opportunity for America's Children is a new research report released by The Children's Partnership.

It 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."


Key Findings
The year-long study reveals that the Internet and other digital tools are beginning to increase success-related outcomes for millions of America's children. However, disparities have resulted in an "opportunity gap" for millions of other low-income and ethnic minority children.
