Currently, the human race lives in an era in which technology plays a large role.
The latest technological devices, such as computers and smart phones are
mostly used in tandem with access to the internet. It is unfortunately also a
reality that people who have access to the internet, have the opportunity to
further themselves in life, while other vulnerable and disadvantaged groups do
not have the same opportunities. This gap is known as the digital divide. Access
to the internet does not only mean being in possession of the device that can
connect to the internet, but also having the opportunity to acquire the skills and
expertise to be able to use the internet.
