-The text itself needs editing - it is too verbose, and textbookish.

-The article would benefit from some illustrative graphs, showing world regions affected by the digital divide, and possibly relating them to economic indicators for those regions.
-A short discussion about methods/technologies used to address the divide would be useful, but without going into too many details - many of the methods/technologies/products have independent articles on Wikipedia and we should link to those.
-[[User:Achitnis|Achitnis]] 14:29, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
-This article is poorly written.  I would suggest a translation of the article out of Bad Writing into at least Acceptable Writing, if someone can find the time (i.e. a rewrite). [[User:66.240.10.170|66.240.10.170]] 06:56, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
-== wiareport.org external link ==
-I removed this as it was added by the institution that "owns" the project:
-*[http://www.wiareport.org World Information Access Project] tracks digital divide trends and produced an annual report
-It looks like it could be good information but I haven't heard of it before and the presentation is very "bloggy" making it difficult (on a very brief look at least) to see what is finished research and what is untested information and opinion.  Other editors should take a look and see what they think.
-While we're on the subject the external links section could do with pruning and focusing.  It's a bit of a jumble at the moment.  --[[User_Talk:SiobhanHansa|Siobhan Hansa]] 23:00, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
-== Advantages and Disadvantages ==
-It would be nice if some information on the benefits and drawback from narrowing the digital divide gap, as well as a few impacts the digital divide causes. [[User:81.106.116.14|81.106.116.14]] 00:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
-== Responses to "Digital Divide" by Bolt and Crawford ==
-According to Bolt and Crawford, education has changed dramatically in the past 25 years, changing towards a society based dramatically on computer education and advanced connectivity, but classrooms have became overcrowded and harder to reach out to the students.
-The digital divide is the separation between books and a computer. Some students go to the internet to find an answer to a homework problem intead of going to a book and looking for the answer and understanding it.
-Since more information is available with new technology, it is easier to specialize education to specific needs, but since teachers don't have the training required or access this information effectively, a lot of this advantage is lost.
-The cost of the computers and the programs which also have to be updated regularly increases the cost of tehcnology. Computer funding takes away from the other programs throughout the school.
