All of the Above IV Lesso Introduction to Media and n 1 Information Literacy What I Need to Know In this fast-paced, technology-driven time, we are bombarded with various information here and there, in the convenience of a click, right in the comforts of our very own homes. Being Senior High School students, you are expected to be literate, not just in terms of numbers and letters, but to be able to fully grasp up to what extent information may be used and distributed. But first, we need to take a close look at the ways by which we use, and eventually distribute information. Hence, we will look into communication and its medium. Take a look at the picture below. Photo Credit: https://huddle.eurostarsoftwaretesting.com/lessons-learnt-effective-communication/ The picture above depicts how each individual communicate at different levels, at different forms. Each one of us has a personal concept of communication. Communication is broadly defined as the imparting and exchanging of information or news (Retrieved from https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/communication on October 31, 2018). In order to communicate, we use different medium of communication to carry out the message we want to convey. There are various outlets that we can use in order to deliver our message. Few of the examples are listed below. 1 Table 1. Examples of Communication Medium Communication Medium How it Works Person to person interaction using one’s voice as the tool to Conversation deliver the message. One to many interaction using one’s voice as the tool to Public Speaking deliver the message to a large number of people, at any given time. Written messages in whatever form, usually on paper and Documents/ Letters/ Mails print. Messages rendered in the form of paintings, drawings, Visual Art photography, videos, images, and the like, that conveys specific emotion, idea or thought. Physical things such as tarpaulin billboards, posters, Physical Medium inpackage information contained in product packaging, and the like. Digital and electronic means to convey messages such as Digital/ Interactive website or computer application, primarily by the use of internet. How about you, can you add more to the list? With the concept of communication defined above, how then can media affect communication? But, before we discuss further on that, we will contextualize media, as it is used in your daily lives and routine as students. What’s New Table 2. Different Kinds of Media Used Daily Activity 1: Different kinds of media With communicating, we make use of different channels so as to convey and/or exchange information. Imagine a typical day in your life as a Senior High School Student. Identify and list down ten (10) different kinds of media that you use in order to communicate information. The first one is done for you. What Is It As you may have written from the list above, Media is commonly synonymous with technology. So, what is Media anyway? Media refers to various channels of communication between a person or persons and their intended audience. Television, radio, newspapers and the internet are different types of Media. One of the oldest forms of media is print. Thanks to the ever changing technology, our exposure to media is almost nonstop. Media shapes our perceptions of what is real. It surrounds us in the forms of billboards, signage, and even the clothes you wear. We have 2 radio, television, computers, and smartphones. We have the internet, online video channels, and all sorts of social media. So stop and look around, media is everywhere, and it’s not going away anytime soon. Learn about it, understand it, so that you may be media-smart. (YouTube Channel MediaSmarts retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=bBP_kswrtrw) Simply put, media are the things or gadgets that we use in order to convey the details of the information that we want to impart or communicate to people, and the society in general. Example, if you want to notify your classmate of a meeting organized by a club you joined, how will you go about communicating the information? Will you send text messages through your cellular phone? Or maybe send a private message through social media? Or write it down on a paper, and hang it on visible places around the campus? Whichever way, you must use a medium to communicate the information. Hence, communication and media are directly interrelated, such that media serves as a platform by which one can meaningfully express and communicate oneself. Furthermore, a specific media (thing/ gadget) can either be a Source of Information, a Medium of Communication, or both. A media is considered a source of information if the use of the media provides knowledge and information about something, while a media used as a channel to convey information is considered a medium of communication. A media can also be simultaneously used both as a source and a medium of information. To give you more of this concept, you may answer the activity below. What’s More Table 3. Identification of Media and its Use Activity 2: Identification of Media Used Use of Media the Uses of Media 1. Cellular Mobile Phones (B) Medium of Communication From the list that you 2. have identified from Activity 3. 1, identify the use of the specific 4. media listed if it is (A) Source 5. of Information, (B) Medium of 6. Communication, or (C) Both. The first one is done for you. 7. 8. 9. What Is It 10. From the example done for you, a Cellular Mobile Phone with simple call and text features is an example of a medium of communication, because it allows you to communicate and reach out to others. However, Smart Phones which are types of mobile phones having the multi-purpose features of communication, multimedia functionality, wireless communication like Bluetooth and wi-fi, is an example of both a source of information and a medium of communication. Needless to say, a smart phone can be used as a medium to communicate to other people from across the globe, and if loaded with cellular data, can surf the internet hence, a potential source of information. 3 Now that we have discussed the interrelationship of media and communication, we will examine the different concepts that will be used in this subject. We will build your definition on the following key concepts, as referenced from the Teaching Guide of Media and Information Literacy formulated by the CHED in collaboration with the Philippine Normal University: A. Literacy- The ability to identify, E. Information Literacy- The ability to understand, interpret, create, recognize when information is communicate and compute, using needed, and to locate, evaluate, and printed and written materials effectively communicate information associated with varying contexts. in its various formats. Literacy involves a continuum of F. Technology (Digital) Literacy- The learning, wherein individuals are ability of an individual, either working able to achieve their goals, develop independently or with others, to their knowledge and potential, and responsibly, appropriately, and participate fully in their community effectively use technological tools. and wider society. Using these tools an individual can B. Media- The physical objects used to access, manage, integrate, evaluate, communicate with or the mass create and communicate communication through physical information. objects such as radio, television, G. Media and Information Literacy- computers, film, etc. It also refers to The essential skills and any physical object used to competencies that allow individuals communicate messages. to engage with media and other C. Media Literacy- The ability to information providers effectively, as access, analyze, evaluate, and well as develop critical thinking and create media in a variety of forms. It life-long learning skills to socialize aims to empower citizens by and become active citizens. providing them with the competencies (knowledge and skills) necessary to engage with traditional media and new technologies. D. Information- A broad term that covers processed data, knowledge derived from study, experience, instruction, signals or symbols. Figure 1. The interrelationship of the different concepts of Media and Information Literacy What’s More Activity 3: Case Analysis With the concept given above, let us now test your comprehension. Answer the activity that follows. Given below are situations that depict a specific literacy that an individual exhibits. Identify if it is Media Literacy, Information Literacy, Technology (Digital) Literacy, or Media and Information Literacy. The first one is done for you. 4 Table 4. Case Analysis on different literacies Situation Literacy Ashley, a Grade 11 student of Gintong Tubig Senior High School is proficient in using her i7 processor laptop with so much ease and comfort. In fact, she is accustomed to use it to Technology (Digital) create powerful PowerPoint presentations during graded class Literacy reporting. In order to add related literature to his Practical Research project, Donnie accesses Google Scholar, and reads through various journals and studies that may help him in his research. One of the Performance Task for the Midterms of the Grade 11 Jenner class of Mabuhay Senior High School is to create a short film highlighting their advocacy on Human Trafficking. The class used the Quik ™ app to edit their video. The Grade 12- Patience class of Ms. Apolonio have registered themselves to an online portal called Edmodo, in order to connect themselves periodically, share assignments, and even collaboratively work on a project, without meeting face to face. Sybil constantly purchases load credits for her mobile phone in order to send emails and messages to her teacher in Media and Information Literacy. As part of the various social media activities of David, a Grade 12 HUMSS student, he periodically shares news bits from credible online sources, then tag his friends who may be interested with the information. Mr. Dingal requires his Grade 11 students to prepare PowerPoint Presentation or other presentation tools when doing graded class reporting. In order to convey his stand on various social issues involving his peers, Marla uses her Twitter and Facebook accounts to air her sentiments and opinions. From the example given above, Ashley exemplified literacy in the use of technology, specifically the use of her i7 processor laptop. The i7 processor laptop is a form of technology, so the answer is Technology (Digital) Technology. Now that you have concretely conceptualized the similarities and differences of the literacies enumerated above, we will now integrate the value of being literate in media and information to your life as a Senior High School student. Part of integrating values to your learning towards becoming a literate in media and information is an inventory of your media habit, lifestyle and preferences. This means that you will assess your personal schedule and list down your common online activities and quantify it as to the number of hours you have spent engaged for the specific activity. The table below shows an example of a common response. 5 Table 5. Example of a Weekly Inventory of Media Habit, Lifestyle and Preferences Number of hours in a week Media or Information Provider (168 hours/ week) Youtube 3 hours Facebook 12 hours Television, Radio 20 hours Books 10 hours Others: pep.ph, google.com 10 hours TOTAL NUMBER OF HOURS/ WEEK 55 hours What’s New Activity 4: Inventory of Media Habit, Lifestyle and Preferences Now, do your own personal inventory. Write it down in the table below, with reference to the example from the table given above Table 6. Weekly Online Activities Log Weekly Online Activities Log Number of hours in a week Media or Information Provider (168 hours/ week) TOTAL NUMBER OF HOURS/ WEEK What I Have Learned Activity 5: Synthesizing Your Learning Answer the following questions based on your learning. Be brief and concise. 1. From your own point of view, make a list that describes a person who is literate in media and information. Write down at least five (5) characteristics. a. b. 6 c. d. e. 2. Of the list that you have enumerated in your Weekly Online Activities Log, which media provider did you spend the most time? And what role does this media provider play in your life as a SHS student? ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ 3. Looking at the total number of hours you have spent on online activities per week, do you think the figure is essential for your to be able to be media and information literate individual? ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ What I Can Do Activity 6: Online Browsing of Satirical Sites 7 Photo Credits: Screenshot from https://adobochronicles.com/2015/06/08/china-lays-claim-over- manilaschinatown/ The picture above shows a sample of fake news headlines lifted from https:// adobochronicles.com/2015/06/08/china-lays-claim-over-manilas-chinatown/, one of the satirical websites circulating online. As a media and information literate individual, how will you respond to this kind of information? Formulate the actions you will take by outlining it on the table below. Steps I will take How I will go about the steps Lesson 2 Information Literacy 8 What’s In In lesson 1, we have learned the mechanics of communication, in order to effectively deliver messages to other people, using different communication mediums or media. There are a number of media uses, each can either be a source of information, or the communication medium itself. We have also defined several literacy terms, one of which is Informagtion Literacy, which will be discussed in-depth in this lesson. What I Need to Know Generated by Marilou L. Lora from https://bigcrunch.io/v/nAEdNnc7nssE4Xi77EhSJg Why do we need information? Where do we search for information? How do we acquire and store information? How do we use the information that we have? How will we communicate the information that we have acquired? The questions outlined above are some of the few questions that comes into mind when we talk about Information Literacy, which was introduced in the earlier part of this module. Before we go further, answer the first activity of the lesson. What’s New Activity 1: Situational Simulation You are given an opportunity to interview personally the mayor of the city where you live in. In this case, write down at least five (5) questions that you would want to ask the mayor. 9 What Is It Now, given the above questions which you have personally chosen, it is important to understand the need to acquire this information that you have asked from the mayor of the city. These questions are actually a result of you trying to go through the process towards becoming an information literate individual. As a review, we already discussed what Information Literacy is. It is defined as the ability to recognize when information is needed, and to locate, evaluate, and effectively communicate information in its various formats. Therefore, it is a set of individual competencies needed to identify, evaluate and use information in the most ethical, efficient and effective way across all domains, occupations and professions. Table 7. Stages/ Elements of Information Literacy Stage What this stage is about? Identifying/ recognizing information needs 1 The realization that there arise a need or a problem exists that requires information, for its satisfactory resolution. Determining sources of information 2 Know how to determine if the needed information exists, and to source out from varied avenues. Citing or searching for information 3 Know how to find needed information, to give credits to the source of the information. Analyzing and evaluating the quality of information Know how to fully understand found information, or know where to go for help if 4 needed to understand, and to assess the accuracy and reliability of the information acquired. Organizing, storing or archiving information Know how to preserve, store, reuse, record and archive information for future 5 use, or to dispose of information no longer needed, and safeguard information that should be protected. Using information in an ethical, efficient and effective way 6 Know how to utilize information to solve problem, make decision, or meet need. Creating and communicating new knowledge 7 Know how to communicate and present information to others in appropriate, usable formats/ mediums. Take note that the concept is appropriately divided into stages as to one cannot proceed with the next step, unless the initial step is not satisfied. It can be considered as elements, since each one must be exhibited in an individual if we consider an one as information literate. In the table from the previous page, let us just consider a situation relevant to your experience as SHS student, particularly your task on your subject in Practical Research. First thing that you need to do is to look for a specific need, a problem that needs resolution (Stage 1) which will serve as the moving reason for your research. Let’s just say you want to look into students’ reading comprehension. Stage 2 requires that you must determine if there are available materials for your references, whether they be in hard or soft copies, digital or 10 otherwise. Definitely, once you have determined your information sources, like the internet, books, journals, and the like, you must cite these sources appropriately in order to not be charged with plagiarism. Stage 4 is all about analyzing and evaluating which from the varied information available are relevant to your research topic, and which are not valuable enough for use. This stage requires a full understanding of the topic or need that you need to resolve. Stage 5 requires knowledge as to the preservation and storage of the information that you have acquired. You may store these on a flash drive, or maybe print or photocopy the information for your reference. Stage 6 is all about the proper way of using the information that you have acquired that will be beneficial to a large number of people. The ethical and legal side of using referenced materials then comes into question. Finally, you will have to decide then as to the manner of communicating the information to the vast majority of the people. Definitely as an output of your Practical Research, you need to have this printed and bounded before submitting to your teacher. Let us now test your understanding by doing the activity below. What’s More Activity 2: Social Media Scenario You have seen the viral video in social media about a senior high school student bullying another student within the school premises. There had been so much concerns circulating in the online world about the identity of the parties involved, one of which claims that the school is playing favorites between the parties, and favoring the bully in the video. As an active social media user, you want to exhibit your being a media and information literate individual, the following table below outlines the task that you will have to take in order to come up with an informative post relative to the viral issue at hand. Let us move on further as you answer the following activity to enhance your capacities in passing opinion as to the daily life situations you are facing involving information literacy as a Senior High student. 11 Information needs (What information do you need?) Sources of information (Where will you get them?) Access to the information (How will you access them?) Evaluate information (How will you check the quality of information?) Organize information (How will you organize and store them?) Communicate information How will you create and communicate them?) What I Have Learned Activity 3: Information Ethics Given below are hypothetical situations that require your unbiased opinion and educated judgment. Write your point of view as to each situation, taking into consideration the following mechanics in grading this activity: Criteria 3 2 1 The author was able The author was able The author was not to clearly ascertain to partially ascertain able to ascertain specific information specific information specific information needs, including the needs, including the needs, including the details needed for details needed for details needed for Treatment of sound judgment, sound judgment, sound judgment, Information considering the considering the considering the elements/ stages of elements/ stages of elements/ stages of Information Literacy Information Literacy Information Literacy The author The author exhibited The author exhibited exhibited excellent fair command of the poor command of the Sentence language, its general language, its general Structure, command of the usage, mechanics usage, mechanics and Grammar, language, its and spelling spelling Mechanics, and general usage, Spelling mechanics and spelling 1. You are researching on an assignment in your subject in Media and Information Literacy. You came along an article online that amazingly can answer the research 12 assignment perfectly well. You copy and pasted it into one great essay, complete with pictures and other visuals. You did not cite your references in order to impress your perfectionist and strict teacher. 2. A family friend, who also happens to be your classmate in one of your classes was diagnosed with an incurable illness. Your close family ties enabled you to know the status of her health, including its severity, and asked you to refrain from spilling out the information outside of your family circle. In order to help her with her absences and academic standing, you told your class adviser about her health status. 3. You are living in a peaceful community within your barangay where everyone practically knows everyone. Lately, there have been rumors circulating around the neighborhood that one of your friends is into illegal drugs. Upon investigation and personal interview, you found out that he is actually using marijuana because of an emotional problem within his family. You decided to help him by enlisting the help of psychologists and authorities in order to help him rehabilitate and cope with the problem. True enough, he was sent to a rehabilitation center in order to undergo debriefing. The news spread like wildfire within the neighborhood and soon, his family’s problems was then discussed out in the open. Your friend’s family have branded you a traitor for helping the “arrest” of your friend and ultimately revealing their problems to the entire neighborhood. What I Can Do Activity 4: Detecting Fake News Online This activity will focus mainly on web browsing, so you must have a stable internet connection. Below is a table, wherein you will be listing down specific websites that are known to publish fake or satirical news. The first one is done for you.
