| Summary: | The expanding use of computers in developing countries - alongside the results of surveys revealing dramatic social indicators for illiteracy - demands careful analysis of the necessary education and training for people to be able to take part and to survive in the information society.”For a citizen of international society, it is no longer enough to know how to read and write, or to have learned a skill. One must have access to information, know how to look for it and find it, master the usage, organize it, understand its organizational forms and, above all, make appropriate, adequate and effective use of it. “ (Spitz, 2000). In this article we raise issues concerning the use of the Internet by low-income classes in Brazil, aiming at discussing the fundamental role Design plays in terms of the inclusion of people from these classes in the inter-connected society. |
