Abstract
Ghanaian school students face a significant obstacle in the form of unequal access to technology. Students who do not have access to devices or dependable internet connections are at a disadvantage as the use of technology in education increases. In low-income areas, where families cannot afford to purchase devices or pay for internet services, this problem is especially acute. The shortfall of power, obliviousness of accessible innovation, nonappearance of organization access and absence of offices for studies, and obliviousness of the school system are a couple of clear reasons adding to the difference. Students may be unable to fully participate in remote learning, complete assignments, or access educational resources if they do not have access to technology. The digital divide can also make existing educational disparities worse and limit studentschances of academic and professional success. To solve this problem, policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders need to work together to make sure that all Ghanaian students have equal access to technology.The present study analyses the difficulties encountered by Ghanaian Students in getting to innovation, which has brought about discriminatory instructive open doors. The study investigates the causes of Ghana's digital divide and how it affects studentsacademic performance. Additionally, it takes into account public-private partnerships, community initiatives, and government policies as potential solutions to the disparities. The findings emphasize the need for immediate action to close the digital divide and ensure that Ghanaian students have equitable access to technology in order to improve their learning outcomes and prepare them for the global economy that is increasingly driven by technology.
