Broadband Breakfast on August 26, 2026: A Distance Learning Update
This panel takes stock of distance learning today, examining connectivity gaps, funding and pedagogy.
Join Broadband Breakfast Live Online for an update on distance learning and the state of connectivity for students outside the classroom. Years after the pandemic pushed schools online, questions remain about how districts sustain off-campus access, what role E-Rate and other federal programs still play, and whether the homework gap is narrowing or simply changing shape. Broadband Breakfast has followed these developments closely, and this panel brings together educators, providers and policy experts to assess where things stand. The discussion will take place at Broadband Breakfast's regular 12 Noon ET time.
