Building Digital Literacy: JobScout Brings Its Online Learning Platform To iOS To Teach You How To Find A Job
It's easy to get lost in the Silicon Valley and Bay Area tech bubbles, where it seems that everyone carries five phones, owns three laptops and just had lunch with a sentient robot. But, the reality is outside of the bubble is a little different. Digital literacy is a privilege, and more the exception than the rule. Not everyone owns a computer or is employed at a startup that just raised $10 million. In fact, California's unemployment rate for December 2012 was 9.8 percent, significantly higher than the U.S. average at 7.8 percent. Christina Gagnier, Stephanie Margossian and Carter Fort co-founded JobScout last year to help address this problem -- to help combat unemployment through digital literacy. With funding from the California State Library and the California Technology Agency, JobScout set out to create an online learning platform to help teach Californians (and everyone else for that matter) the basic skills required to help find a job in an increasingly digital world.
