computerliteracy
Having computer literacy is necessary for students in their studies because of the wildly use of computer in schools and libraries. However, the emphasis on computer literacy varies among different countries or regions. In order to have a better perspective, this study investigated computer literacy skills and notions perceived by fifty international students who came from different region of Asia. Although there appeared to be variations in the importance of computer literacy among different counties in Asia, the result of this study showed that the students from South Asia had more skills on computer hardware and computer programming than the students from South Asia.As computer information systems are being used at an increasing rate in all over the world and covering all areas in our society, attaining computer literacy has become a necessity for international students. The substantial growth in information systems and the growing need for computer literacy for personnel has presented a tremendous challenge to international students. In order to deal with the computer information age and compete in the job market in the future, students must attain a certain extent of computer literacy.
