Digital literacy in California

Thanks to Linda Goff again, who sent me several news items. Last week, California Governor Schwarzenegger signed an Executive Order, supporting an ICT Literacy policy framework. It notes that "ICT Digital Literacy skills are vital to California's ability to compete successfully in a global information and knowledge economy". It is very much focused on computer use and connection to the internet, but there may be scope for pushing an information literacy agenda. http://gov.ca.gov/executive-order/12393
