Proposed Title No. 3

Computer Literacy: A Requirement for Global Competition?

Reason(s)/Justification(s) in Choosing the Topic:

We live in a world filled with technology. Just ten years ago, we didn’t encounter

as many computers as we now do. The reality is that we can’t afford to be technophobes

anymore. Computer literacy is not just a skill that’s reserved for the elite set. It is time

to embrace the technological revolution and equip ourselves for a bigger and brighter

future.

Computer literate is a term used to describe individuals who have the knowledge

and skills to use a computer and other related technology. This term is usually used to

describe the most basic knowledge and skills needed to operate software products such

as an operating system, a software application, or an automated Web design tool.

Computer literacy is becoming an increasingly essential skill.

If you are a professional in your 30’s or 40’s doing the same thing on a daily

basis, you probably know that you need a little technological push in the right direction

to reach your full potential. Many people unwittingly settle in their careers for fewer

chances and opportunities because they feel as if, ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.

Expected Contribution to the Growth of Knowledge in ____________.

1. Social Perception on Computer Literacy as a major requirement for job landings and

other pursuits on an international level.
