Lesson 3: Responsible Use of Media and Information

Media and other information providers play a central role in information and
communication processes. Nowadays, media become the common outlet of
self-expression and creativity. Its huge influence spreads speedily across the
globe. The connection between technological advances and people’s
connectivity created a huge impact to the lives of today’s generation. This
module covers all the above-mentioned concepts.

What’s In

Media and Information literacy recognizes the primary role of information and
media in our everyday lives. Empowerment of people through Media and
Information Literacy (MIL) is an important prerequisite for fostering equitable
access to information and knowledge and promoting free, independent and
pluralistic media and information systems. Media and Information Literacy is
composed of three main concepts: Media Literacy, Information Literacy and
Technology/Digital Literacy. Developing necessary skills and competencies in
regards with these concepts is an effective way to use and produce
information from the traditional and new media.

RESPONSIBLE USE OF MEDIA AND INFORMATION


We defined Digital Literacy/Technology Literacy as the ability of an individual,
either working independently or with others, to responsibly, appropriately,
and effectively use technological tools. This concept has something to do with
issues arising in the digital world today. With the growing trend in the use of
technology, cases of unethical use are also surging up.

With this concern, ethical use of media and information should be given great
emphasis through inculcating Digital citizenship starting with Digital access.
Digital access refers to the ability to fully participate in digital society. This
includes access to tools and technologies, such as the internet and computers,
that allow for full participation.

Having full access to technology requires continuously developing norms of


appropriate, responsible, and empowered technology use which refers to
Digital Citizenship. Let’s take a look at the Nine elements of Digital Citizenship
to understand its content.

Digital citizenship also includes Digital Etiquette which pertains to electronic
standards of conduct or procedures and has to do with the process of thinking about
others when using digital devices. Recognizing Online Proper conduct is a must and it
has something to do with “Netiquette”.

Merriam- Webster dictionary defined Netiquette as set of rules about the proper and
polite way to communicate with other people when using the internet. Common
issues in the digital world such as bashing and online bullying occur due to improper
conduct online. As a responsible online user, the following core rules should be taken
into consideration;
