PREFACE

Today’s society is shaped with a sudden growth and development of

information technology (IT) which, in a greater sense, resulted in
society’s great dependence on IT and t h e t e c hn i c a l competence of an
individual. Although that dependence is growing on a daily basis, the
human right to education and information has not been sufficiently
extended to the IT area. Problems that are emerging are affecting society
as a whole, creating gaps and distancing people from the main reason
and motivation for advancement, and ultimately, from opportunity.
Today, to be a computer illiterate person means to be a person that is
unable to participate in modern society; a person without opportunity.
In spite of t h e acknowledged necessity and benefits of inclusive
computer literacy by, for example, the European Commission, UNESCO,
OECD and other relevant organizations, there are still groups of people
with hindered access to basic computer education (people with
disabilities, people with learning difficulties, migrant workers, the
unemployed, a n d people that live in remote (rural) areas where IT
education is not accessible).

This handbook, combined with other materials published on the

ITdesk.info website, represent our effort and contribution to society’s
rights to education and information within the IT area. We hope that
this handbook will help you in le a rn i ng an d mastering basic computer
skills as much as you can i n o r d e r t o be c o me an active member of a
modern IT society.

Sincerely yours,

ITdesk.info team Expert review of Croatian version:
