For my blog, I am going to focus on the topic of digital divide. I learned about the topic a little while ago when I was exploring different forms of global inequality. In short, digital divide is the inequality of the distribution, access to and learning how to use technology and digital information (Computers and internet access, for example). The biggest factors that play a role in the digital divide are economic status, education level and geographical location. Societies with more access to technology are more capable of advancing economically and competing globally. I hope to understand more of this topic as I learn more about global inequality in my class.
