Abstract

Providing access to the ever-expanding world of information to a greater number and variety of individuals reminds one of the zeal that fostered the first publicly funded education system. It is clear that the survival of contemporary culture and technology rests heavily on an 'encyclopedia' of shared values and ideas. Awareness of and participation in this dynamic receptable of shared experience could eliminate certain socioeconomic distinction but may result in other forms of social stratification. While researchers labour over 'information visualization' as a means of filtering extremely complex quantitative relationships among data into relatively simple, manipulable graphical entities, a new form of literacy may emerge. With voice and pattern recognition, the multifunctional screen with its audio and visual motion may become a prosthesis allowing a growing population of the non-reading and video-oriented to initiate sophisticated information quests and become interested in textual interactivity
