University of Maryland Students Help Middle School Students to Cross the Digital Divide - Shirley Morman and Denise Lewis, techLearning

The University of Maryland Educational Talent Search Program is using computer hardware and a soft touch to help some Prince George's County middle school students cross the Digital Divide. ProjectLINKS has a commitment to narrow the gap between those who have access to computers and computer technology and those who do not. With this goal in mind, ProjectLINKS was created as an online tutoring program that gives academic support to middle school students, as well as teaches them how to use computers and the resources that computers can provide.
