Abstract

The maturing research and development foci of SITE's International Committee have an ethical dimension. Comparative research and international collaboration are a healthy way, facilitated by communication technologies, to increase diversity within teacher education as well as to increase the quality of evidence to inform future practice. This symposium will tie the research of International Committee's members with the digital divide issue. Each participant will 1) briefly present (three-five minutes) his or her research work, 2) link it to the digital divide issue, and 3) engage in dialogue with other participants and the audience on the problem of research for better digital equity.
