Reflecting on research (class 04/06)

The research I have found to date has pretty much gone along with my original thought that race impacts digital literacy. The authors seem to agree most of the time but some authors think that along with race, there are other social factors that influence digital literacy (such as class). I think that the articles I have read are correct in their thinking. I have found the conversation between authors to be informative, interesting, and very helpful.
Some problems I have had is that there seem to be discrepancies among the authors and researchers about certain statistics and trends. To overcome this disagreement, I am going to use the more widely used statistic and examine the bias one author might have which is making the statistics different. I also need to obtain more supporting facts in order to strengthen my argument even more in my Core 4 paper.
