This book problematizes digital divide with critical lens by focusing on education in general and specifically second language education with an emphasis on the context of Turkey based on sound methodologies and robust theories of modernity, postmodernity, post-structuralism and post-method framework. In line with this conceptualization, critical thinking skills, social dialogue, collaboration, accessibility and digital literacy have been widely discussed empirically and prioritized in this book. In addition, social injustice, digital inequality, gender gap, economic disparity, demographic differences and knowledge divide have also been addressed. EFL teachers and pre-service teachers as cultural workers have been incorporated into the studies to critically reflect upon digital divide in Turkey. The views of teachers and learners at a socio-economic disadvantage emanating from socio-political issues have been addressed and foregrounded. The digital divide and inequalities that COVID-19 pandemic has produced have also been emphasized. The context of Turkey where digital divide has been prevalent during COVID-19 pandemic is believed to inspire researchers specializing in digitalization and digital education. The strategies, problems, effects and solutions have been presented. This book presents a reliable source to students, teachers and academics in education and second language education as well as social scientists and policy-makers across the globe.

Much of the discussion about new technologies and social equality has focused on the oversimplified notion of a "digital divide." Technology and Social Inclusion moves beyond the limited view of haves and have-nots to analyze the different forms of access to information and communication technologies. Drawing on theory from political science, economics, sociology, psychology, communications, education, and linguistics, the book examines the ways in which differing access to technology contributes to social and economic stratification or inclusion. The book takes a global perspective, presenting case studies from developed and developing countries, including Brazil, China, Egypt, India, and the United States. A central premise is that, in today's society, the ability to access, adapt, and create knowledge using information and communication technologies is critical to social inclusion. This focus on social inclusion shifts the discussion of the "digital divide" from gaps to be overcome by providing equipment to social development challenges to be addressed through the effective integration of technology into communities, institutions, and societies. What is most important is not so much the physical availability of computers and the Internet but rather people's ability to make use of those technologies to engage in meaningful social practices.
