  abstract =     "The first step in designing a college level computer
                 literacy course is to define what is meant by computer
                 literacy. Unfortunately no consensus exists as to what
                 the label ``computer literate'' should imply. The
                 difficulty in both defining computer literacy and
                 designing a satisfactory computer literacy course is
                 evident by both the frequency of change and
                 experimentation occurring at many institutions and by
                 the forests of textbooks that exist for such a course.
                 In this paper we present a definition of computer
                 literacy that is independent of any specific
                 application or application genre and introduce the
                 notion of application literacy as distinct from that of
                 computer literacy. Finally we describe a course
                 implementation strategy commensurate with our
                 philosophy.",
