Digital divide, cyber bullying and computer addiction are the common problems
that some people encountered.
What is It
Are all members in the family having skills in digital manipulation? How your
parent does enroll you in the school this year? In what way, you communicate your
family and friends afar from you?
Some of you may answers differently like not all members have the ability to use
technology while other family members can, some experience enrolling via online
while others went to their respective barangay to get the enrolment forms and
lastly, others may be through letters or basic phone call while other can have video
call as a form of communication. These are simple scenarios that we experience of
what we called digital divide.
Digital divide pertains to the social and economic imbalance of the opportunities to
access to, use of or knowledge of information and communication technology
(ICTs). It is referring to a gap between sector in the community who can access, has
the skills and has desire to the internet and those who cannot. The unequal
opportunity of the internet acquisition is caused by the differences of skills,
motivations and preferences of use based on category such as personal category
(gender, age, race/ethnicity, personality, intelligence and Health), positional
category (education, occupation, household and nation) and the resources category
(economic, social and cultural capital) status of a person. The divides arise due to
lack of knowledge on how to manipulate the technology and understanding of its
benefits as well and some cannot afford to access because the income is low.

advantage of technology and how to use the advance technology in rural areas.
