Synopsis

Provides students with a sound knowledge base relating to computer use
in  the  educational,  work,  and  broader  social  contexts.  Such  a
knowledge base will highlight the potential of the computer as a  tool
for  enhancement of and support for information access,  manipulation,
presentation,  and  storage.  Not only will  the  unit  provide  basic
computer  literacy in terms of where and how computers are  used,  but
students  will learn how to use computers to benefit both their  study
and  their careers. Issues involving awareness of how computers impact
upon society, such as ethics and privacy, will also be discussed.
