DIGITAL LITERACY

The concept of digital literacy, as the term is now generally used, was introduced by Paul Gilster, in his 1997 book of the same name. The term itself had been used during the previous decade, though with a more restricted meaning – the ability to deal with hypertextual information. Gilster's idea was much broader, and did not involve the enumeration of lists of particular skills, competences or attitudes defining what it is to be digitally literate. Rather, he explained the concept quite generally, as an ability to understand and to use information from a variety of digital sources, and regarded it simply as literacy in the digital age. It is therefore the current form of the traditional idea of literacy per se; the ability to read, write and otherwise deal with information using the technologies and formats of the time. In an 'information society' and a 'knowledge economy', it is plainly an essential life skill. This generic expression of the idea, although it has irritated some commentators, is one of the strengths of Gilster‟s concept, allowing it to be applied without concern for the sometimes restrictive „competence lists‟ which have afflicted some other descriptions of the literacies of information.

Life on a Desert Island

    Most of us have formed an unrealistic picture of life on a desert island. We sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise where the sun always shines. Life there is simple and good. Ripe fruit falls from the trees and you never have to work. There is also the other side of the picture: Life in a desert island is wretched – you either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe waiting for a boat which never comes. Perhaps there is an element of truth in both these pictures, but few of us have had the opportunity to find out.

    Two men who recently spentfive days on a coral island wished they stayed there longer. They were taking a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink. They quickly loaded a small rubber dinghy with food, matches, and cans of beer and rowed for a few miles across the Caribbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island. There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this didn’t prove to a problem since the men collected rain-water in their rubber dinghy.As they had brought a spear gun with them, they had plenty to eat. They caught lobster and fish every day, and, as one of them put it, “ate like kings!” When a passing tanker rescued them five days later, both men were genuinely sorry that they had to leave.
