A big part of studying these days goes beyond the libraries and textbooks. More kids are finding themselves studying in public places such as McDonalds since they can’t afford proper internetz.
Cheap smartphones and tablets have put Web-ready technology into more hands than ever. But the price of Internet connectivity hasn’t come down nearly as quickly. And in many rural areas, high-speed Internet through traditional phone lines simply isn’t available at any price. The result is a divide between families that have broadband constantly available on their home computers and phones, and those that have to plan their days around visits to free sources of Internet access.
I have this problem, only backwards. I have an internet connection, but can’t afford college. trolololol. :trollface:
