Artificial intelligence and digital education in Africa

By Boukar Michel

The digital divide, defined as the gap between those who have access to information technologies and those who don't, is a major problem in Africa. This concept includes aspects such as Internet connectivity, the availability of digital devices, and disparities in infrastructure and skills. Several factors contribute to this divide, including economic and social inequalities, geographical inaccessibility, and cultural and linguistic barriers. These factors exacerbate differences in access to digital resources, and limit the continent's opportunities for economic and social development. The impact of this digital divide on education in Africa is profound. Indeed, it generates inequalities in access to digital educational tools and content, limiting students' ability to pursue quality learning, especially in rural and marginalized areas.
