Answer to Question 1

C
It is not generally a lack of desire that is a barrier to use of the new technological systems, but the lack of knowledge about them. It is essential to conduct needs assessments to learn what a community has, what a community wants, and what it can sustain. Well-intended projects have failed because the most basic needs were not met, nor was recognition given to what resources and services the country could sustain.

Answer to Question 2

A
