Dominican Republic Tackles Digital Divide in Education

The Dominican Republic is making strides in bridging the digital divide in education. Wilson Mateo, director of Technology at the Ministry of Education, recently spoke about the ministry's efforts to provide equal access to technology for all students. "The Ministry of Education promotes the pedagogical use of technological resources," Mateo stated, emphasizing the importance of digital tools in modern education. The initiative aims to address the technological limitations many students face and create opportunities for active participation in learning. This is evident in the Ministry's efforts to bring technological resources to even the most remote communities. Mateo's comments were part of a larger national education event, 'El Reto de Todos,' highlighting a commitment to educational transformation in the country.
