Bucheon City to Launch 'Digital Literacy Station' Next Month... Hands-On Digital Experience in Daily Life
Bucheon City in Gyeonggi Province has established a "Digital Literacy Station" at the Bucheon Citizens’ Learning Center Online e-Studio, where citizens can experience digital devices in their daily lives and enhance their digital skills. The official operation will begin next month.
This initiative was launched after Bucheon was selected as a base institution for Gyeonggi Province’s public project, "Visiting AI and Digital Literacy Education."
The Digital Literacy Station is equipped with kiosks, AI speakers, and tablet PCs. Participants can experience a variety of digital services, including ordering and making payments using kiosks, trying out voice assistant and generative AI features with AI speakers, and learning to search maps and prevent deepfakes using tablet PCs.
Applications can be submitted from the 1st to the 15th of every month through the Bucheon Lifelong Learning Center website by institutions and organizations such as local educational institutions in Bucheon, nearby literacy education centers, lifelong education centers for people with disabilities, and multicultural lifelong education institutions.
