Do you know the terminology?

I found this statement on a website while surfing on how to teach computer skills to adults.

Most how to pages on the internet today are not easily understood by many of us over fifty. In addition often middle aged people lack the computer skills for using the internet which creates an educational gap.

Thinking of the Wiki assignment, I think this should be kept in mind. Some of the people that may use the site might not be as comfortable with the computer as we are. There is a large teacher population that is very fearful of technology.

Thoughts anyone?
