 In an age where connectivity is often praised as the cornerstone of progress, there exists a breach that threatens to deepen societal inequalities, known as the digital divide. Welcome back to the 24/7 trap spot blog post and today we are exploring the multifaceted issue that surpasses geographical boundaries, socioeconomic status, and generations. As we discuss this topic today we will dive into the factors that contribute to this divide that casts shadows on education, employment, healthcare, and even democratic participation.  To begin with personal experiences of using social medias like X/Instagram to broaden my PLN (personal learning network) I have actively engaged with educators and professionals that specialized in whatever subject I was struggling with, which at the time was math.
