StepS - Stepping Stones into the Digital World
The project aims to share experiences on how to best teach digital literacy do adult learners that otherwise risk being
excluded from information society. The objectives are to promote basic ICT skills, lower the threshold and increase
the motivation and skills of the staff. Material, methods and good experiences will be shared resulting in a best
practice guide produced at the end of the two year project.
In order to achieve an inclusive digital society library, information centres and adult educational institutions have an
important role to play. The partnership of StepS is built on organizations like this in eight countries representing the
North, the East, Central and South of Europe. The work will revolve around project meetings in some of the
participating countries and ICT will play a key role in the communication between the partners.
The project will raise awareness on the need for digital literacy and put focus on groups who are in need of extra
guidance and counselling like senior citizens and migrants.
