The digital divide can effect the success of students within schools because it can limit the amount of online resources that some students have in comparison to others. One of the main causes of the digital divide is because of the different financial status of families. As the cost of electronics can be fairly expensive, not every family has the resources to be able to afford a laptop or smartphone for their student. As we are transitioning into the era of technology, I feel that there would be major issues regarding the digital divide and the amount that students are learning. Students with technology resources may advance faster than those without which can create an issue within the classroom.
Using Canvas to complete assignment #2 was a great tool that allowed for easy collaboration for all of my group members and myself. Something that I enjoyed about using Canvas for assignment #2 is that all members of the group have access to editing which allowed each member of my group to submit their own portions of the assignment. Something that I disliked about using Canvas for assignment #2 was that I found it difficult to paste the group evaluation form into canvas without the formatting being messed up. I can see myself in the future creating Canvas groups for my future students when group work is being assigned in the classroom.
