  abstract =     "We report here our cumulative 2-year experience with
                 the ``The Digital World'', a course designed to
                 increase the technological literacy of non-science
                 students. The course relies heavily on computer-aided
                 instruction, including the extensive use of electronic
                 lectures and multimedia. Students were able to acquire
                 a surprising level of sophistication by working with
                 examples of digital technology chosen from their daily
                 lives. Students were also able to identify weaknesses
                 in areas of current technology and public policy
                 similar to those identified by experts. We describe our
                 successes and failures, and present cumulative data on
                 performance, by major, class, and gender. All
                 courseware and applications for ``The Digital World''
                 are available from the author.",
