Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Educational inequity remains a significant challenge in global education systems, with disparities in access to resources and opportunities disproportionately affecting marginalized communities. One of the most pressing issues contributing to this inequity is the digital divide—the gap between students who have access to digital tools, technology, and reliable internet, and those who do not. This paper examines the importance of closing the digital gap to reduce educational inequity for high school students. It explores the implications of the digital divide on student learning, the role of technology in modern education, and the strategies for ensuring equitable access to digital resources. By addressing this divide, we can create a more inclusive and effective educational system that provides all students with equal opportunities for success.
