| computers tools for an information age: Multiliteracies for a Digital Age Stuart A. Selber, 2004-01-23 Multiliteracies for a Digital Age serves as a guide for composition teachers to develop effective, full-scale computer literacy programs that are also professionally responsible by emphasizing different kinds of literacies. Stuart A. Selber also proposes methods for helping students move among these literacies in strategic ways. Defining computer literacy as a domain of writing and communication, Selber addresses the questions that few other computer literacy texts consider: What should a computer literate student be able to do? What is required of literacy teachers to educate such a student? How can functional computer literacy fit within the values of teaching writing and communication as a profession? Reimagining functional literacy in ways that speak to teachers of writing and communication, he builds a framework for computer literacy instruction that blends functional, critical, and rhetorical concerns in the interest of social action and change. Multiliteracies for a Digital Age reviews the extensive literature on computer literacy and critiques it from a humanistic perspective. This approach, which will remain useful as new versions of computer hardware and software inevitab |
| computers tools for an information age: Ethics for the Information Age Michael Jay Quinn, 2005 Ethics for the Information Age offers students a timely, balanced, and impartial treatment of computer ethics. By including an introduction to ethical theories and material on the history of computing, the text addresses all the topics of the Social and Professional Issues in the 2001 Model Curricula for Computing developed by the ACM and IEEE Computer Society. By introducing ethical theories early and using them throughout the book to evaluate moral problems related to information technology, the book helps students develop the ability to reach conclusions and defend them in front of an audience. Every issue is studied from the point of view of multiple ethical theories in order to provide a balanced analysis of relevant issues. Earlier chapters focus on issues concerned with the individual computer user including email, spam, intellectual property, open source movement, and free speech and Web censorship. Later chapters focus on issues with greater impact on society as a whole such as privacy, computer and network security, and computer error. The final chapter discusses professionalism and the Software Engineering Code of Ethics. It invites students to contemplate the ethical dimensions of decisions computer professionals must frequently make. |

| computers tools for an information age: Information Ages Michael E. Hobart, Zachary Sayre Schiffman, 1998 The late twentieth century is trumpeted as the Information Age by pundits and politicians alike, and on the face of it, the claim requires no justification. But in Information Ages, Michael E. Hobart and Zachary S. Schiffman challenge this widespread assumption. In a sweeping and captivating history of information technology from the ancient Sumerians to the world of Alan Turing and John von Neumann, the authors show how revolutions in the technology of information storage -- from the invention of writing approximately 5,000 years ago to the mathematical models for describing physical reality in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries to the introduction of computers -- profoundly transformed ways of thinking. |

| computers tools for an information age: Computing Paul E. Ceruzzi, 2012-06-15 Discover the history of computing through 4 major threads of development in this compact, accessible history covering punch cards, Silicon Valley, smartphones, and much more. In an accessible style, computer historian Paul Ceruzzi offers a broad though detailed history of computing, from the first use of the word “digital” in 1942 to the development of punch cards and the first general purpose computer, to the internet, Silicon Valley, and smartphones and social networking. Ceruzzi identifies 4 major threads that run throughout all of computing’s technological development: • Digitization: the coding of information, computation, and control in binary form • The convergence of multiple streams of techniques, devices, and machines • The steady advance of electronic technology, as characterized famously by “Moore's Law” • Human-machine interface The history of computing could be told as the story of hardware and software, or the story of the Internet, or the story of “smart” hand-held devices. In this concise and accessible account of the invention and development of digital technology, Ceruzzi offers a general and more useful perspective for students of computer science and history. |

| computers tools for an information age: Public Administration in an Information Age I.Th.M. Snellen, W.B.H.J. van de Donk, 1998-12-31 This book is a joint effort of researchers who have been involved in research-projects and programmes that have been trying to chart and reflect upon the implications of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for Public Administration. Since the 1950s, computers had largely facilitated and the transformation of the minimal 'Night-Watch-state' into the modern 'Welfare-state', through their contribution to their effectivity, productivity and efficiency. In most Handbooks of Public Administration, computers are seen as neutral instruments and, most of the time, the role of computer technologies in the transformation of public administration is completely neglected. This 'deafening silence' is a great contrast with the way ICT's are actually changing public administration. The faster the developments in a field of study are, the more difficult it is to let the theories, related to that field of study, mature. In such circumstances, most statements will remain provisial and context-dependent. 25 years of research in Irvine (California) and Kassel (Germany) and more than 10 years of research in Tilburg/Rotterdam (The Netherlands) and about seven years of research in Glasgow/Nottingham (the United Kingdom) nonetheless enables the presentation of a modest image of public administration as it is entering the information age. Researchers in each of these groups have, nevertheless, not stopped trying to phrase theories about the implications of informatization for public administration with a more or less larges scope, that are robust in different contexts and over longer periods of time. These results and theories, covering a broad set of elements of the body of knowledge of public administration, are presented in this volume. As the authors try to demonstrate in this book, informatization developments in public administration do not only challenge the existing body of knowledge of the public administration discipline, but they are also opening up new perspectives and paradigms for the study of public administration. |

| computers tools for an information age: Tiny Quantum, Giant Revolution Ching-ray Chang, Meng-chien Wang, 2024-07-02 The first industrial revolution was accompanied by the emergence of the School of Engineering, the second brought about the School of Electrical Engineering, and the third digital revolution led to the School of Information. It is now obvious that the change in this quantum revolution must lead to the emergence of the School of Quantum Science and Technology. Quantum technology can develop comprehensively through the integration of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (STEAM). In 1925, Heisenberg developed the Matrix Mechanics, cracking the mysteries of the Quantum world. Coinciding with the 100th anniversary of Matrix Mechanics, in 2024, the General Assembly of the United Nations proclaimed 2025 the 'International Year of Quantum Science and Technology,' along with a year-long initiative celebrating the profound impacts of quantum science on technology, culture, and our understanding of the natural world.This book outlines the importance of the 'Second Quantum Revolution,' introduces quantum computers, quantum communications, and quantum sensors, and then provides a framework for the emergence of the quantum Internet of Things. What basic quantum literacy should modern citizens have in this era? The 'Second Quantum Revolution,' where quantum knowledge and engineering technology are once again combined, will provide faster, more effective, and more sensitive quantum facilities to accelerate cross-field exploration, and will also make human life more comfortable and convenient than ever before.In the 'First Quantum Revolution' in the 20th century, humans learned quantum science from nature and used existing materials to make quantum components. In the 'Second Quantum Revolution' in the 21st century, humans further used quantum science to construct quantum engineering. We now make materials and components that are not found in nature and assemble new quantum machines to benefit mankind! This is the stage of a glorious quantum era, which is a hundred times more brilliant than the past classical physics era. |
| computers tools for an information age: Young Children and Families in the Information Age Kelly L. Heider, Mary Renck Jalongo, 2014-12-05 This edited book presents the most recent theory, research and practice on information and technology literacy as it relates to the education of young children. Because computers have made it so easy to disseminate information, the amount of available information has grown at an exponential rate, making it impossible for educators to prepare students for the future without teaching them how to be effective information managers and technology users. Although much has been written about information literacy and technology literacy in secondary education, there is very little published research about these literacies in early childhood education. Recently, the National Association for the Education of Young Children and the Fred Rogers Center for Early Learning and Children’s Media at Saint Vincent College published a position statement on using technology and interactive media as tools in early childhood programs. This statement recommends more research “to better understand how young children use and learn with technology and interactive media and also to better understand any short- and long-term effects.” Many assume that today’s young children are “digital natives” with a great understanding of technology. However, children may know how to operate digital technology but be unaware of its dangers or its value to extend their abilities. This book argues that information and technology literacy include more than just familiarity with the digital environment. They include using technology safely and ethically to demonstrate creativity and innovation; to communicate and collaborate; to conduct research and use information and to think critically, solve problems and make decisions. |
