How is internet access affecting your or your child’s ability to learn during class? Tell us here

Coronavirus has exposed inequity in California schools. Access to high-speed broadband affects how students learn and how teachers and professors teach.

Some Fresno Unified teachers have told the Ed Lab they are reaching their monthly broadband usage limits because all their classes are online.

Students are also using broadband, and families worry about increased broadband usage.

Does your household have enough broadband?

The Education Lab is exploring a series of stories about the digital divide in Fresno County.

Last spring, readers told us about shortages of laptops and tablets among local students. Now we are asking community members, teachers, professors, and students to help us once again with our reporting.

The Ed Lab has created this short survey to understand the broadband situation teachers, students better, and professors face. Please fill out and feel free to share.

We are listening.
