摘要
Our experience with digital literacy tutoring for older adults confirms other research that identifies technology-related anxiety as a significant barrier for this constituency. Based on established theories of instructional design, we hypothesize that anxiety impairs the development of digital literacy skills by consuming critical cognitive resources. Our research with experienced tutors reveals numerous strategies for mitigating anxiety and motivates the development of anxiety-aware instructional and design frameworks, and new anxiety scales that better reflect current devices, services, and threats.
