A modular IT literacy course for the Internet era

IT literacy courses and curriculum date back to the 1960s at Dartmouth. Since that time, the curriculum has been revised as new platforms for developing and delivering applications emerged. Today, many students take IT literacy courses, but the curricula vary somewhat as a function of the student's major field. I have developed a set of modules, from which a customized course or a few modules to supplement a textbook can be selected, and will describe the format of those modules.

Keywords:: variation in IT literacy courses, evolution of IT literacy, definition of IT literacy, teaching module format
