Results of the survey

According to the results the majority of students in rosebank collage have

access to the internet outside of campus. It also shows that phones are the
common means of access to the internet. This is mainly because smart
phones are affordable these days. Socio-economic issues play an
important role in my findings because the results show that not every
student is able to afford to buy a computer or laptop.
The research shows a significant difference in the level of skill in using
technology. The majority has a fair level of skill in using technology.
There is a correlation between the level of access and skill because the
results indicate that the majority of the students who have access to the
internet, outside of campus, are able to use the internet well.
