Do you wish you had the time, and dollars, to take a real, live course on computers?
Then this site is for you!
E veryone picks up bits and pieces of information while using and working around computers. This can leave some pretty big gaps in your information landscape. These lessons are an attempt to fill in the missing pieces and to tie it all together. The "Illustrated" part means there will be lots of pictures. Other sets of lecture notes I have seen online are pretty much bare text. While the writing is often great, such text-only notes do not take advantage of the possibilities of web pages. So you will see some animations and graphics that enhance the text and, hopefully, make it clearer. Topics Computer Basics

http://communication.ucsd.edu/bjones/comp_lit_paper.html
James Baldwin "A Talk to Teachers" In 1976 John Nevison coined the term computer literacy and unwittingly sparked a long, complex debate when he wrote: Because of the widespread use of elementary computing skill, there should be an appropriate term of this skill. It should suggest an acquaintance with the rudiments of computer programming, much as the term literacy connotes a familiarity with the fundamentals of reading and writing, and it should have a precise definition that all can agree on. It is reasonable to suggest that a person who has written a computer program should be called literate in computing . This is an extremely elementary definition. Literacy is not fluency" (Nevison 1976:401, italics in original). The "precise definition" that Nevison called for has yet to emerge from the voluminous debate on the topic and the discussion has become part of the much larger debates about equality in education and the "back to basics" movement. This discourse is and has been about two things: it is a debate about what the term "computer literacy" should encompass - how it should be taught - and a discussion of the value to US society of pursuing some kind of universal computer literacy. It seems as though every educator and education writer has some opinion about the so called "computer revolution," how it is going to reshape education and how to best bring that revolution into the classroom. The range of the debate runs from Nevison's original idea - computer literacy as programming ability - to the idea that quickly followed on it heels - the notion that programming ability is passe and what matters is the ability to chose and run applications.

World Computer Literacy Day 2002
Scaling the vision for an IT savvy world
Union IT Minister Pramod Mahajan, peeling the mark of IT ill literacy from the face of global citizens. December 2 has joined the ranks of those special days on the calendar that touch and transform the existence of thousands of the world's citizens. When NIIT decided to dedicate its 20th anniversary in 2001 to spreading the light of computer literacy across India, we didn't suspect it would snowball into such a momentous revolution. The computer literacy movement in the sub-continent received a major shot in the arm on December 2, 2001, when NIIT and its network of partners helped over one lakh people cross the digital divide. Encouraged by the response we received for World Computer Literacy Day last year, we have decided to chase even more ambitious goals and aspirations in 2002. As Rajendra Pawar chairman and managing director, NIIT, announced recently, during the launch of the World Computer Literacy Day campaign, this time around, NIIT is hoping to acquaint at least two lakh global citizens with computers. At the WCLD launch event :
NIIT's dream of making the world completely computer friendly is borne out of the fact that today, the term literacy has no meaning unless it encompasses IT learning. With computers pervading our lives in a significant way, it is becoming imperative that each and every person be computer aware and IT savvy. If countries have to get ahead in the emerging economy, it is important for them to make their peace with technology. World Computer Literacy Day is a tribute to this vision and on December 2, 2002 we plan to scale the event even further.

Within October's post, (below) is another I'd written in March re Enduring Operation Infinite Rhetoric. All still hold true for me and that's that.
However, when I received emails to sign petitions from both Freebo and Michael Monagan, I knew my fellow artist's nonsense quotients had overflowed toward action. It's not even a choice anymore!

Stop Saying ``Computer Literacy''!
Brian Harvey
University of California, Berkeley [A version of this paper was published in Classroom Computer News in 1983.] As computers become more widely used in schools, educators have invented many different ways to use them. The different uses for computers are based on quite diverse models of what the purposes of computer education should be. One very common approach is based on the notion of ``computer literacy'': the idea that there is some basic familiarity with computers which all students need in order to compete in the job market, or to be informed citizens. The purpose of this paper is to question whether that notion is valid.
The Importance of Metaphor
Several educators have questioned the specific details of particular ``literacy'' plans, while accepting the overall concept. ``Computer literacy doesn't mean X,'' they say, ``it means Y.'' For example, Arthur Luehrmann says, ``[C]omputer literacy must also mean the ability to do computing, and not merely to recognize, identify, or be aware of alleged facts about computing.'' (Luehrmann, 1981) His argument is that a computer curriculum should give students actual programming experience, not just reading about computers in a book. But Luehrmann accepts the concept of computer literacy itself, the idea that there is something which every student must learn. He questions only the details of just what this something is.

Computer Literacy Checklist Parents are constantly wondering what their children should know about computing. Is my three-year-old a computer whiz because she can control a mouse? Or, is my child going to fall behind because he's five and isn't interested in the computer at all? Of course, kids advance at different speeds and in different ways, so you shouldn't be concerned if your young child isn't interested in the family PC. If you're curious about computer-literacy guidelines, though, a recent effort called U.S. Kids Compute drew on a wide range of established research to create guidelines about what kids should know about computing. Here are the skills and goals for kids ages three to eight:
  • Talk and sing along with characters in a program Point and click using the mouse Explore the on-screen environment and discover hot spots Respond to simple Yes or No questions in a computer activity Use the mouse and cursor to add stamps while using creativity software Remember places in a program that they like and ask to return there Start a program from the computer desktop Find their way through a simple program Click and drag on objects and move them around the screen Play a variety of readiness and concept-building activities to learn letters, numbers, and shapes
