It addresses these constructs particularly in the span of the COVID-19 pandemic and thus, giving an insight into what post COVID-19 might hold for them. This article adapts a monograph by Ismael Peña-López (2010) which describes a comprehensive approach to the phenomenon of the digital divide and digital access based on Marc Raboy and Mark Warschauer's research.
