Abstract

The study takes on the stereotypes associated with the possession of skills related to computer technology tools and information depending on age.

It then presents the results of a survey assessing the usefulness of computers and the Internet to selected characteristics of the information society action in three chosen specific groups - young people (students), mature people who work mentally and seniors who are learning computer science.
