Peer Review Week 7.[edit]
Hello, As I was reading the article I noticed that one paragraph has paraphrasing plagiarism. “According to the United Nations International Children's Fund (UNICEF), the COVID-19 pandemic has affected more than 91% of students worldwide, with approximately 1.6 billion children and youngsters unable to attend physical schools due to temporary closures and lockdowns.[168]” Denisseacevedo073 (talk) 05:51, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
“The numbers are unprecedented, the implications enormous. As the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the globe, a majority of countries have announced the temporary closure of schools, impacting more than 91 per cent of students worldwide – around 1.6 billion children and young people.” This is the information from Unicef on their site. I would rewrite this paragraph with original work and site the information.
The article did contain neutral ideas and did not include bias or favor a side. Information is supported by informative, reliable data and is cited.
Another information that can be added into the unequal access to technology paragraph is “In 71 countries worldwide, less than half the population has access to the internet. Despite this disparity, 73 per cent of governments out of 127 reporting countries are using online platforms to deliver education while schools remain closed. In reporting countries across Latin America and the Caribbean region 90 percent of government continuity learning responses include online platforms”. This is an information from UNCIEF and can be found on their article page.
More information can be added on different ways students are receiving education other than video communication calls. One way students are being taught in South Asia,Latin America and the Caribbean are through radios. The radio is the third source in which students are able to receive an education. Most of the information I was able to find was on Unicef with supported citations and articles.

Hello, Yarelvaldez,
Please start articles in Draft space or in your user sandbox. You can't create a blank article directly into the main space of the project or it will be deleted. You should have learned this in the course you are taking. Liz Read! Talk! 01:50, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
