In Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox for February 26, 2007 (which can be accessed at https://webmail.polk-fl.net/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.useit.com/alertbox/computer-skills.html) he shares a good argument for why schools should teach deep, strategic computer insights that can't be learned from reading a manual.
In this article he provides a list of the things schools should teach to provide students with "Life-Long Computer Skills." These include, among others, Search Strategies I, Writing for Online Readers, Computerized Presentation Skills, User Testing, and other Basic Usability Guidelines.
I believe you will find his article helpful in gaining a better insight into the computer skills which our students of tomorrow should be taught. https://webmail.polk-fl.net/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.useit.com/alertbox/computer-skills.html
