Do the students of this facility have the same opportunity as the residents from better socioeconomical backgrounds or are they being excluded from the technology?</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Material/Method: </strong>To approach the thesis goal I have used a quantitative method. More specifically, a questionnaire was handed out to the senior year students at Anacostia High School.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Main results: </strong>The study has shown that most of the students of Anacostia had in some way access to computers and Internet. Most of the students asked had the access of computer and Internet at home. Few of the students whom lacked computer and/or Internet access at home could access it from somewhere else. The study also showed that the High School of Anacostia had Internet access and computers. Even so, the students felt they didn’t have physical access to Internet and computers from school, because the demand was too big and the supply not enough. Therefore most of the student did not have the opportunity to use the computers and Internet at school.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p>
