The document discusses the need for digital learning for all students to prepare them for the 21st century. It argues that the world has become flat, digital, and constantly changing, requiring new skills. It proposes providing every student with a device and open digital materials to achieve digital learning for all. The implementation would occur over three phases: decision making, planning, and execution. The goal is to change systems, culture and leadership to support digital learning and close equity gaps.

Editor's Notes
- This is the defining challenge of our times in public school.
- The only solution then is to wait – wait until that day when we can afford to buy every student the same device.Is it really more equitable to say that no one has access to technology until everyone can have the same thing?It’s not about the device, its about what we do with it.The only solution then is to wait – wait until that day when we can afford to buy every student the same device.Is it really more equitable to say that no one has access to technology until everyone can have the same thing?It’s not about the device, its about what we do with it.The only solution then is to wait – wait until that day when we can afford to buy every student the same device.Is it really more equitable to say that no one has access to technology until everyone can have the same thing?It’s not about the device, its about what we do with it.The only solution then is to wait – wait until that day when we can afford to buy every student the same device.Is it really more equitable to say that no one has access to technology until everyone can have the same thing?It’s not about the device, its about what we do with it.
- How does denying children access to technology in the name of equity serve their needs?Without access they will never have the opportunity to develop the skills that their more appropriately resourced peers have at home every day.
- What is worse?
