How do you understand the foundation of computer culture?

It is the knowledge, skills and values required by the computer and information society. The role of print culture in the information society is as important to the industrial society as the culture of reading and writing is to the industrial society. As is the case with illiteracy in industrial societies, machine illiteracy is not adaptable and effective in the information society.

When this concept was first proposed in the 70s of the 20th century, it was understood as understanding how computer systems work, that is, learning about computers themselves; In the early '80s, programming was seen as a staple, the second culture of the information society (print culture was the first culture), and people should learn to read and write programs.

In the mid-80s, with the spread of microcomputers and their penetration into homes, there was a wealth of applications available for schools and all walks of life, and for most people, the main task was to learn to use a computer.

It establishes channels of communication between people and between one group of people and another, greatly reducing the distance in time and space, allowing people to talk to each other, exchange ideas and exchange information. Each new thought is being synthesized into a renewed mind, resulting in a new understanding of the nature of humanity and the universe in which we live. The most important feature of the network is that everyone can be at the center of the network and talk to each other completely equally.

"Fundamentals of Computer Culture" is a basic computer course for undergraduates majoring in computer science and non-computer science in colleges and universities, which is an introductory course in computer science.

This course covers the fundamentals of computers, operating systems, word processing, electronics**, and Internet technologies. These knowledge and skills are essential for college students in the information age.

Through the study of this course, students can systematically understand the basic knowledge of computers and commonly used microcomputer operation techniques, improve students' ability to acquire new knowledge, so as to improve the quality of computer culture and adapt to the needs of future work. It will lay a good foundation for further learning computer knowledge and technology after returning to the university.

Understand the basic knowledge of the computer system: the content involves the basic composition and working principle of the computer, as well as the concepts and preliminary knowledge of computer network, multi-technology and computer security.

The so-called computer culture is a new cultural form produced by the fundamental changes in the way of life of human society due to the use of computers, which can be embodied in: (1) the rich culture of computer theory and its technology in the extensive penetration of natural science and social science; (2) The software and hardware equipment of the computer, as the material equipment created by human beings, enriches the variety of material equipment of human culture; (3) Computer applications intervene in all aspects of human society, so that the scientific ideas, scientific methods, scientific spirit, and value standards created and formed have become a new cultural concept.
