Information Literacy
Information Literacy is the set of abilities allowing individuals to identify the need for information and to search for, access, evaluate, and ethically use information in a variety of formats. The information literate individual understands how information is socially situated and produced, and the social, cultural, and ethical impact of information.
How can we help our students, and staff to develop the skills to effectively locate, evaluate, analyze, and synthesize information to make decisions?
Goals:
- Increase awareness and understanding of information literacy, with focus upon how it impacts upon the college’s oral and written initiatives.
-
Increase awareness and understanding of information security and online identity management.
