Re: Throw 'em out!

Yes, most people are hopelessly ignorant. That doesn't change the fact that people should be more knowledgeable about what they own.

Owning a computer has, frankly, become so widespread that the need to know, really know, how to use one has been overlooked. Like most everything else, it's not a fundamental right, and just buying a computer won't bring you into the modern day or make you tech-savvy. If anything this is an argument that a whole lot fewer people should be owning computers than currently do.

What exactly should be learn? Exactly that is....is there some book about what specifically should be learned?

I am interested about what SPECIFICALLY should be made mandatory and what shouldn't

Lets see for starters:
How to identify a phising email
Basic computer troubleshooting - including BIOS beep codes, Using Windows safe mode, command line intro for both Linux and Windows
Differences and similarities between Linux, Unix, Windows, and Mac.
Intro to the Internet 101
Basic programming

I know you asked for specifics, but I wont write the lesson plans for you - you can get a good enough idea from my list.

One may say "Why did you include X?" I felt that those subjects are the most important that came to the top of my head. "Why didn't you include X?" no specific reason, I probably didn't even think about it.

One of my professors, has to get help to change the input on the projector. And they have a doctorate. I mean t's just fundamental subjects like that should be pounded into peoples heads.
Should we state a double standard and say that I should learn the basics in their field? Not necessarily. We use technology on a day-to-day basis do we not? Should we not at least have basic comprehension of the tools that we use in our day-to-day lives? I ask you this.
