Much has been written elsewhere about how, different Information
Technology tools, can in principle be used by groups or
communities to make their web sites more effective for Continued
Professional Development. In practice, complex use is not often
the case. In particular, three sites were studied in Scotland,
which provided web facilities for the over 60s. The sites, and
the communities they served, used only simple Information
Technology. Nevertheless, they enabled their communities to
participate effectively, on the 'right side', of the European
population's 'digital divide'. Actions (login required)
