Information Technology Indicators Project
What does a technology healthy community look like?
The Information
Technology Indicators Project is one of a
number of Citizens Technology Literacy and Access
projects developed by the City of Seattle Department
of Information Technology and the City’s Citizens
Telecommunications and Technology Advisory Board (CTTAB).
This project is intended to measure the impact of
information technology on the health and vitality of the
Seattle region.
Indicators
Data Collection
The first set of data for the indicators is in the
process of being collected. Some of the data
currently available includes:
Seattle Technology
Residential Survey: The first-ever Seattle survey
looking at residents' technology access,
literacy, and attitudes.
Neighborhoods
and Technology: The results of a survey of
community and neighborhood group leaders to learn
about their use of information technology in community
work.
Non-Profits
and Technology: A collaborative survey of the
Department of Information Technology, the Human
Services Department, United Way, and King County
Community Services Division looking at information
technology access and needs within the non-profit
community.
Phase
I: Indicator Development
See the results of the indicator development process.
Completed in May of 2000, this set of indicators
represents a new model for looking at the impact -
both positive and negative - that technology is having
on our region.
This
project is part of the City of Seattle Citizens Technology Literacy and Access
initiative in cooperation with the volunteer
Citizens Telecommunications and Technology Advisory
Board (CTTAB)
and Sustainable
Seattle. Additional assistance for the
forum is being provided by
Progress
Project of the Evans School of Public Affairs
and Seattle Community
Network.
