What is Instructivisim

The ongoing pandemic provides an opportunity to highlight the results of the vicious cycle where COVID-19 intersects with poverty, education, and technology in Ghana. In this chapter, the authors apply intersectionality theory to the overlapping areas of the existing poverty, educational, and technological divides in the sub-Saharan country of Ghana. The authors further demonstrate how the dysfunctional implications of this intersect are further amplified and compounded by COVID-19. The authors propose several recommendations for the resolutions of the intersectionality issues identified. These include practical suggestions for the Ghanaian government, the various educational institutions, private sectors, and individual teachers and students.
