Why Do we Need to Develop Information Literacy? 

Learning in a digital society includes searching and accessing information as well as processing skills, this is known as information literacy.

Do you choose what you feed your mind? Do you believe that everything you hear is true?  What about everything that you read on the internet?  In the world we live in, almost anyone can write and publish information on the internet.  While lots of the information we consume is reliable and accurate, it doesn’t mean that everything on the internet is.  Unfortunately, there are an alarming number of unreliable facts and “fake news” being posted online each day and it is more important than ever to understand the difference between what is true and what is false.
