Digital Inclusion: The Global Imperative of Bridging Schools and Home
 The 2013 CoSN International Symposium will explore the growing economic and educational imperative for new strategies and policies to achieve a ubiquitous technology environment at school, at home and in the community.
In some countries, Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) are increasingly viewed as a policy of social inclusion and equity, rather than just an education strategy. These bold efforts are extending learning beyond classroom walls, helping teachers and students to be more engaged and connected, bridging the home/school connection and improving the lives of families. The infrastructures and hardware components of these efforts are part of a much larger transformation occurring and positioning the next generation of learning systems. Explore how we can build new coalitions involving government, industry and philanthropic organizations to support and scale these efforts. Attendees of this Symposium will experience a thought-provoking day and will come away with the tools to start a new conversation about establishing ICT in their own districts.
