Youth Internet Use and Digital Divide
Greetings! I'm a researcher at the University of Minnesota and am looking for reports of young people's Internet use that address issues of equity (esp., differences by socioeconomic status). I'm especially looking for reports that profile young people's access to the Internet, location of use, range of Internet technologies used, purpose of uses, self-reported proficiency. Reports that look at young people's Internet use in educational settings are also welcome. I am familiar with Pew and NCES...do you know of others, either completed or in-progress? Thank you for any referrals! -- Christine Greenhow, Ed.D.

You might want to look at the issue of The electronic journal of communication on 'A digital divide? Facts and explanations'. Jan van Dijk's 'A framework for digital divide research' (and especially the references) could prove helpful. You can find the journal at: http://www.cios.org/www/ejc/v12n102.htm Good luck Brook
