Description
We may consider technology as the set of tools, both hardware and software, that help us improve our performance in di?erent working (and playing) - cations; it includes all the man-made objects from paper to the latest audio book.
Information technology helps to use, edit, share, and exchange kno- edge,intheformofdocuments-textual,acoustic,andpictorial-quicklyand e?ciently.
E. D. Hirsch, Jr. pointed out that literate people in every society and every culture share a body of knowledge that enables them to commu- cate with each other and make sense of the world around them.
The kinds of things a literate person knows vary from society to society and from era to era, so there is no absolute de?nition of literacy; the same holds for computer literacy.
We may look at technology literacy from three di?erent dimensions: capabilities, knowledge, and ways of thinking and acting.
According to this scheme, such dimensions can be placed along a continuum - from low to high, limited to extensive, and poorly developed to well developed.
In such a thr- dimensional(3D)space,arethedi?erentproductsandgadgetsinoureveryday life, like the iPod, that are extensively developed, and have high-level ca- bilities but require little knowledge to make them work.
Conversely, a CAD software package has low capabilities since it is a specialized application, and extensive knowledge is required to use it.
These ways of thinking and a- ing must be well developed.
There are di?erent views on which computing platform will encompass others existing one.
