                 is a major category of computer science education.
                 Although computer literacy potentially involves the
                 greatest number of people, achieving an ongoing program
                 presents computer educators with formidable problems.
                 My concern is with the concept of ``functional''
                 computer literacy, that is, a level of computer
                 literacy expected of everyone living in a computer
                 society. Functional computer literacy can be developed
                 by implementing a curriculum for junior and senior high
                 school students. Two requirements for achieving a
                 computer literacy curriculum are (1) to develop a
                 philosophy which is both ``computer'' and ``literacy''
                 and (2) to identify minimum requirements for being
                 computer literate.",
