Resumen

Inequalities observed in the digital divide can be based on physical access, social norms, infrastructure, and educational reasons. Recently, skills and competency, which are the sub-topics to be examined under education, have become one of the most prominent issues within the network and information society. Universities that were already in a slow adoption process had to come up with rapid and effective solutions because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Educators became capable to offer solutions in teaching and learning by using information and communication technology (ICT).
