Welcome to the last semester in FSP. In this semester I am taking Information Literacy (IL) as ICT subject. My lecturer for this subject is Miss NurKhairunnisha Zainal. What I have learnt in topic 1 are IL definition and Big 6 Process.
From what i have learnt, IL is the set of skill needed to find, retrieve, analyze & use information. IL also known as Information Competency & Information Skills. From my understanding, there are 6 elements of IL. That are Library Literacy, Media Literacy, Computer Literacy, Internet Literacy, Research Literacy & Critical Thinking Literacy. Information Literacy is very important because it is the solution to Data Smog.
The Big 6 Process
