  abstract: New Frontiers in Technological Literacy examines new aspects of how students, citizens and teachers become technologically literate and the aspects of their lives that are mediated by technological literacy. Scholars from four continents consider how technological literacy is shaped by everything from gender to age to country of origin and shapes our relationships to democracy, sustainability, medicine, education, philosophy and our workplaces. With incisive and forward-looking chapters on topics ranging from scientific and genetic literacy to digital democracy, New Frontiers in Technological Literacy joins Defining Technological Literacy in uncovering how technological literacy affects education, work and life in the modern world.
  table of contents: Conceptualizing technological literacy -- The hidden voice of youth -- Issues relating to democracy -- Gender and technology -- Sustainability -- Technological literacy in China -- Education and the concept of technological literacy -- Technological literacy in the workplace.
