News from the AUF -> Teachers must think internet-first | |
Giving everyone digital skills is a key factor in tackling long-term unemployment, argues Martha Lane Fox. Digital skills are now vital for education and employment: we know that you're 25% more likely to get work when you have web skills, and, once in that job, you'll earn 10% more. Unison, the biggest public sector union, has just conducted a skills survey of some of its 1.3 million members. Almost half of middle-aged, low-paid women (cleaners, catering staff, carers) argued that lack of digital savvy was their most serious skills gap. Our figures show that 4 million of the 8.7 million UK adults who have never used the internet are from our hardest-to-reach groups. Source: Guardian UK June 20, 2011 |
