Study Notes
Modern Digital Skills - Chapter 2: Information and Data Literacy
- Literacy in the digital age is the ability to read, write, and understand various communication forms, including accessing, understanding, evaluating, analyzing, and using information.
- Data literacy involves reading, writing, and communicating data in context, analyzing it with statistical tools, and using it in decision-making. It also includes understanding data privacy and ethical use.
- Information literacy involves finding, evaluating, interpreting, and applying information to situations requiring decision-making, problem-solving, or knowledge acquisition. It includes identifying information needs, managing and ethically sharing information.
- Data vs Information: Data is raw facts used for analysis. Information is processed data with meaning used for decision-making.
- Finding data and information can be done through various search engines including Google (basic, advanced, images, scholar, advanced video search). Search engine examples also include Bing and Microsoft search engine.
- Search engines such as Google provide advanced search options to specify keywords, exclude results, and search for specific document formats (e.g., ppt)
- Image searches on Google allow for specifying image size, color, and time.
- Video searches on Google and other search engines help find relevant videos.
- Google Scholar is used for finding academic research papers, supporting scientific research and professional pursuits. It is helpful for finding scientific publications, books, and scientists.
- Wikipedia is a free multilingual online encyclopedia written by volunteers, using a wiki-based editing system.
- Credibility of online information is important. Users should be wary of false information from social media or other sources and verify the source reliability.
- Critical information literacy advises pausing before sharing information, distinguishing between misinformation (inaccurate information unintentionally spread), disinformation (false information deliberately spread), and mal-information (accurate information used maliciously to mislead).
