Abstract

The contribution refers to two projects of computer/ICT literacy of older adults in Slovenia that are also linked one to another. The first is the Slovenian national project “Computer literacy of population” – that was actually the first project of this kind in Slovenia, and that brought a new, innovative, i.e. the so-called brain learning-based curriculum. The second project is the European international project “Specific experiences in collaborative work using ICT – Photographic Internet gallery project” – that brought a curriculum developed on the basis of the one of the first project.
