As a teacher, you always see all kinds of socioeconomic backgrounds that promote or inhibit that child's education. While many schools are fortunate to have kids that have technological resources, there are just as many that don't. Most teachers just accept this fact and teach within those boundaries. How can you escape them? How could you really make a difference?
I think the most important thing in changing this unfortunate situation is showing that you really care. You care about these kids on an individual level and you care about their future. New technologies are expensive which points to the main reason why this issue is there. Old fashion fundraisers are car washes and gift wrap selling; nothing that requires technology. This can be easily changed by the Internet.
I think one of the most simple things to start out doing would be to make a facebook fan page. Let all your student and your students friends become fans. On the fan page, explain that you are raising money to expand technology into the homes of those without these resources. The population of people on facebook alone is guaranteed to create some funding for these computers and other supplies. Next, make a twitter or a blog and publish to the world what your cause is. When people in your community become aware of your cause the more popular it will be. The best part is, it is not limited to your local community... it can reach the entire world. A little exposure is all that is needed. Because the cause is so current I think the idea would catch on and many people would donate to the funding for these students. It is so easy now a days to reach out internationally and people like to see teachers that are really engaged in their students and their lives.
