Tool Search: Digital Equity
The Digital Equity tool allows schools to track digital devices and internet availability for students. When a student's instruction method changes, the existing Digital Equity record should be ended and a new record created. Records cannot overlap.
See the core Digital Equity article for information on necessary tool rights, available Ad hoc fields, and guidance on adding and printing Digital Equity records.
