Description:

In an era of AI and "bring your own device" classrooms, 1.4 million young Australians are heading back to school without a computer at home.

This evening, we sit down with Carolin McDaid, CEO of WorkVentures, to discuss a startling surge in the digital divide. While the rest of the country moves toward a high-tech future, nearly 23% of our youth are being left behind—some forced to do entire assignments on a smartphone.

Listen to John Stanley live on air from 8pm Monday to Thursday and 7pm on Friday on 2GB Sydney and 4BC Brisbane
