Paper Abstract:
|
It is necessary to re-define eliteracy_ in ways that are of practical use. In the early days, we distinguished between print
literacy and computer literacy. But in fact we should separate operational computer literacy and cognitive computer
literacy. The former ranges from adequate to very advanced skills in computer commands and processes. Cognitive
computer literacy refers to an intellectual grasp of how to exploit what the computer [including the WWW] offers,
whether this be to find or record information, share information with others, or interact with other individuals. The paper
will refer to this as e-literacy and will explore some of its key principles. |
