Thinking of promoting basic computer education to information technology literacy education in college

Abstract

In order to keep up with the computer science development and national informationization, basic computer education has been deeply reformed in domestic college. After investigating the present situation of basic computer education and its reformation, a new reformatting scheme is proposed. Basic computer education in college should be promoted to information technology literacy education, which students' information technology literacy and practice ability will be strengthened. In this scheme, the teaching process is divided into three stages: basic information technology literacy education, application ability of information technology literacy education, information technology literacy of specialty education. And modularized courses are prepared for students in each stage. The detail of corresponding lecture and experiment curricula system is also researched. © 2008 IEEE.
