The Digital divide is the difference between the people who have access to resources, new information and tools, such as the internet. It also defines the difference between the people who can use this new technology and the people who can not.
I have made a infograph which not only explains the definition of a digital divide but it also allows you to see and view the statistics of children who are unable to gain access to simple things such as the internet or even evolving technologies.
There are a number of different types of infograph’s but I have chosen this one in particular as it shows information on the digital divide as well as providing images and graphs on the topic. I have viewed a number of infograph’s on this topic and one similarity that stands out among the graph are the use of pictures to tell the information. I believe many people have chosen to take the picture option as it enables the graph to become eye catching.
I have added a lot of information into my infograph which can be seen as a down fall to people who like quick snapshots of what they are reading instead of a paragraph of information. I have seen a very well completed infograph that was comprised with dot points and pictures, I believe this was a very eye-catching and clever graph and provided a opposite view to my own.
