1. Public Wi-Fi (5-7 sentences) Recognizing the public demand for Internet acces

Question

1. Public Wi-Fi (5-7 sentences)

Recognizing the public demand for Internet access and also the Digital Divide that limits internet access to some disadvantaged groups, some cities (e.g., New York City, Chattanooga) have provided extensive public Wi-Fi "hot spots'. Is this a policy that all cities, including Cleveland, should follow despite widespread accessible internet through public libraries and community centers and many privately-owned businesses (e.g., coffee shops)?

2. Public School Technology (5-7 sentences)

The best performing public schools in the United States typically try to provide the latest technology to their students, including the most current devices to be used in and outside the classroom. However, many inner city (and rural) public schools often are unable to provide this for their students because of budgetary limits. Therefore, as part of the "Every Student Succeeds Act" (Week 8), should the federal government be responsible for ensuring that all public schools provide adequate learning technology to prevent an educational "Digital Divide"?

Explanation / Answer

First question is answered below

1.

Yes, as the publicly provided wifi services in coffee shops and libraries still require entry fees or some charge to order food in order to have access to wifi. So, in a way this wifi is paid and not entirely free. The need is for government to provide free wifi which the extremely poor can use and make the best use out of.

This will benefit these people like the poor or low middle class more who can use wifi and internet to your advantage and grow with it's help.

Hence, government should provide free wifi in public places
