The latest report from academics - digital analphabetism
"Those who will learn how to use computers the Internet will have an easier life. The remaining ones will be left behind. Digital analphabets will not be able to find a job offer in the net, vote or pay bills," reads the report. "There are two ways of learning about computers: you are forced either by your work or your child" says prof. Wojciech Cellary from Akademia Ekonomiczna in Poznań. According to the report over 70% of 16-24 year olds use the computer at least from time to time. The factors which stimulate the knowledge of computers according to the report include work, money, friends, education and living in a big city. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 3) A.Z.
