Information Literacy?

What is information literacy?

-the ability to determine what information you need- knowing what you don't know
-being able to find out who has the information you need
-once you find the information - is it really what you need, is it correct
- then combining what you learned with what you know
- using that new pool of information to accomplish something

Being able to read words and getting the meaning from them is one form of literacy.
Being able to "read" the pictures used to tell a story on TV or in a commercial is another form of literacy.
Knowing what you don't know and how to fill that gap is Information Literacy!
