“Understanding the Relevance of Information Literacy in the Midst of Social Era”

The world has evolved so much as humans progressed, certain things started to surface such as the well known social media and the World Wide Web (WWW). As the technology made our lives changed and evolved from just limited in having ways of communication, to having so many ways to communicate throughout the world by the use of social media and other social communication tools, which it drives humanity to become more connected, collaborative, and sociable than ever. These are inevitable, as we know they hold promising advantages we often use them to be productive. Yet, there are times we forget being literate while using social media or surfing the web. For example, unconsciously taking copyrighted documents that may result in plagiarism through unknowingly use of a phrase from the document, this is an example of being illiterate. Consequently, as we become more connected, and exchanging information is being made, and this is where being information literate must be present and practiced.

Due to existing in the information age, being wary in the information that is taken from the web is important, the reason behind this is the ability to access hundreds of results in just one search. Uncertain of which are reliable and which are not, this is where information literacy comes to action. An individual who is literate in gathering information is able to recognize the information that is essential and used effectively in an ethical way of retrieving information. Individuals that exist nowadays, should become information literate because the information in the web can be overwhelming that blocks the sense of rationale of a person to identify which are reliable or which are not. It is needed and a vital aspect of an individual to have, especially in this modern world and in the midst of the social era. The advancing age of people should not forget that everything within the web has its owners that should be credited.
