Bridging the Digital Divide

Dear Danish, Silvance, and Florence,
Our names are Hannah & Ashton and we go to your sister school Dawson.
For the Challenge 20/20 project we would like to ask you a few questions.
First we would like to know: how can computers help your education?
Computers have helped our education by offering research resources, graphs and data tables, typing documents and Internet access. We use the Internet for looking at pictures, reading documents, emails, research options, and the ENO program.
We would also like to know if you had access to computers would they help those who can’t afford school? Would being involved with ENO and other Internet courses help get you an education? What other electronic devices would help bridge the Digital Divide?
We look forward to your answers, and working to bridge the Digital Divide with you.

⇒ Your friends, Hannah & Ashton

We are a part of the Dawson ENO group. We live in Boulder, Colorado, USA. In our free time some activates that we do are skiing, playing sports and playing with our friends.
Hi my name is Michael. I like to play basketball and I go to the Dawson school. There are a lot of kids in my class. I am 14 years old and I have a mom and dad. I also have a brother and a sister.
Hi I am Trevy. I am 14 years old. I have mom and a dad and a brother and sister. My brother is in the last year of high school. My sister is in her last year of college.
In our community there is a lot of farming. We grow corn, herbs, pumpkins, and trees. At the Colorado State University there is advanced agriculture research. We were wondering if you would like to be in contact with them. You could ask them for information on improving irrigation, fertilizers, and soil quality. I think that they would be interested in learning what you are doing with your crops
We are looking forward to hearing back from you.

Best Regards,
Michael and Trevy
