Information Literacy vs.


Technology Literacy
Media Literacy- The ability to access, analyze, evaluate, and create media in a variety of forms. It
aims to empower citizens by providing them with the competencies (knowledge and skills)
necessary to engage with traditional media and new technologies.

Information Literacy – The ability to recognize when information is needed, and to locate, evaluate,
and effectively communicate information in its various formats.

Technology Literacy- The ability of an individual, either working independently or with others, to
responsibly, appropriately, and effectively use technological tools. Using these tools an individual
can access, manage, integrate, evaluate, create and communicate information.
Benefits of Media and

perpectives.
• Is this photo real or edited?
• Did this person really say this statement?

2.) It encourages audiences to think critically.


• With critical thinking, you are able to wisely use the information you
have with you to objectively form an informed opinion or perspective about a
certain matter or issue.

3.) It promotes responsible information sharing and dissemination.
• With the spread of false information nowadays, MIL encourages you to step
back and evaluate the truthfulness of the things you share in social media and
even those that you speak of to your friends, relatives, or colleagues.

4.) It helps you identify and understand the media’s role in our culture.
• From the billboards to the texts and videos that we see around us, media
tend to promote our culture in various ways. MIL makes you conscious of
these influences on your preferences, tastes, choices, and even lifestyle.

Information Literacy
5.) It teaches you to think and decide objectively, factually, and
reasonably.
• Each story and information that you see everywhere you go has a side. MIL
reminds us that the messages we encounter often have more than one side
and that it is our responsibility to explore these other angles.

6.) It encourages you to actively participate in public affairs as a citizen.


• Media keeps you updated with that’s happening in current affairs. Have the
opportunity to voice out your opinions, whether literally or in social media.

Information Literacy
7.) It teaches you to create your own content responsibly.
• Media creators are not only those who work under the media industry. In
reality, even our facebook posts or tweets are already a form of media. In
turn, you are creating a piece of information that you’re willing to share, and
each post that you share on social media contains information that you are
responsible for.

8.) It makes you better appreciate media products.


• MIL makes you more familiar of how media messages and productions are
created, developed, improved, packaged, advertised, and disseminated. Thus,
you are able to appreciate not only its entertainment value, but also its
technical aspects.
