Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and digital divide in Costa Rica: opportunities to create complementary learning spaces in Higher Education using social networks.
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to provide a general approach of the state of the digital divide in Costa Rica, exploring the current situation and considering reports of the government institutions involved, giving emphasis to the definition of digital divide. Giving emphasis to relevant data on the progress of telecommunications and the reduction of the digital divide in access, in addition to an approach to digital literacy as a the need not to stay behind the development of ICT to take advantage of the best way to its benefits on to use technologies that encourage virtual learning spaces. In addition, you will see a small exploratory exercise of the use of social networks in higher education and environments where it eventually could prevail the digital divide of use. Finally, there are some considerations due to the currents avoiding the maximum achievement of the ICT advantages.
