Based on a recent idea of the German government, the costs of the Internet are going to be included in payments. This indicates the thinking that this could be an important first step for creating more justice in education. Therefore it is necessary not only to have access to this kind of information but also to have the competency to use it, as a computer and the access to the Internet itself do not make any difference regarding learning (Clark, 1994). Regarding these aspects, it is not merely the possession of Internet access, which is important for the educational justice, but rather the competency, or the actual use of the Internet.
