Co-workers live what they teach: E-work – The Center to Bridge the Digital Divide helps people, institutions and communities apply information technologies.
Dee Christensen lives in Olympia, Wash. Her work partner, Monica Babine, lives in Kirkland. They work together closely and daily from their homes for WSU’s Center to Bridge the Digital Divide http://www.cbdd.wsu.edu/ , headquartered on the Pullman campus. They are a perfect example of the kinds of programs they manage: E-work — using technology to do information-based work from a distance.
Christensen, director of e-work programs, and Babine, coordinator of e-work programs, are frontrunners in the movement to diversify rural economies by growing information-based work.
