1. Digital Access

Digital Access - Digital Access lets people have more chances to access to the technology



 

What did the survey show in terms of accessibility?


1. It showed that most of the people have access to the internet, less had access to the internet and others are not too sure if they are able to access to the internet.

2. Did all students surveyed have access to the Internet outside of campus?  

No not all, because some students are not from privileged backgrounds which is even difficult for their parents to pay the money to the campus during the year so when it comes to the internet, it will come as a last option to them.

3. If so, what was the most common means of access?


It means to able to access online to chat, post, purchase items and research for assignment.

4. If not, why do you think this is the case?

It is because it depends which household can afford the internet or they do not pay much attention to it.

5. Did socio-economic factors play a role in your findings?  

Yes it has because my neighbourhood is not that privileged with high income houses so my condition has more difficulties than those who live in high income houses.

6. Did everyone have the same level of skill in using technology?

No, because some former high school students never did IT and some do not know much technology because they are from township or rural communities.


7. Was there a correlation between the level of access available and skills? 

 Yes, because in order to access you must have skills with experience and levels to operate further
