Figure 4- 4: Wireless Zone Awareness
45% of all surveyed participants knew of the wireless zone by the “Wireless
Zone” sign. This result showed that most students were aware by visual
clues around them instead of finding out from school announcement or
asking the IT department. This finding showed that the “Wireless Zone”
signs are helpful and most of time they are well-marked. But there are still
some locations where a few students could not find those signs.
