ICT Digital Literacy

http://www.ictliteracy.info/

.

.

"The Digital Literacy Portal is the "public face" of an international
movement focused on promoting Information and Communication Technologies
(ICT) Literacy and Digital Literacy. This website provides a rich global
resource and collaborative environment for dissemination of ICT Literacy
and Digital Literacy materials, interactive discussions, research
information, and international dialogue.

.

The resources are intended to build awareness, encourage debate, and
promote the importance of digital literacy. They provide practical
information for business, government, teachers, and educational leaders,
and encourage communication by employing technology tools in the most
collaborative sense. Digital literacy is becoming more integrated into
all aspects of our daily lives - such as access to educational
opportunities, health and medical services, banking and consumer
services, e-government services, and for applying Green ICT solutions to
global environmental challenges."
