Overview of the course: Information Literacy course.

ASSALAMUALAIKUM WARAHMATULLAH WABARAKATUH

        Peace be upon you, my readers. 

        First of all, I would like to thank my lecturers who are willing to teach us throughout this third trimester. This subject would be my last subject for ICT packet, but knowledge will be always with us.

        In this first week’s post, I will share what I have learned. Actually, I have no idea about this course, but we did a fleeting overview on the subject. So I have obtained a little piece of information about the subject, but it is a big thing for me. What I have got is that Information Literacy is a set of ability or a skill which helps up to find information. What is more, the main purpose of studying this subject is to obtain information faster and more efficiency at the right matter from credible resources or being able to locate information in a various formats and sources.

        At the same, I know what I am going to learn throughout discourse. Big 6 process is the main character for this week. This process consists of six stages. There are task definition, information seeking behavior, location and access, use of information, synthesis and evaluation process. Once we are expertise of this process, we now can be information literate. In the meanwhile, we are strengthening additional abilities which can sharpen literate skill more precise and active.

        Overall, I am really happy to see my real progress and have chance to get involved into this subject. Furthermore, I am really impressive, because my lovely lecturer could explain very well to me on the matter in the class.
