\nExcerpt:<\/span><\/p>\n

“While research into how young people become competent in using the Web is patchy,
\nthe study did find some consistent themes.\u00a0For one, information literacy has not improved with the
\nwidening access to technology. Instead, the speed of Web searching means little time is spent
\nevaluating information for relevance, accuracy, or authority.\u00a0<\/span>Young people also have difficulty in
\ndeveloping an effective search strategy. As a result, they have a strong preference for using natural
\nlanguage in searching, rather than analyzing which keywords might be more effective.\u00a0<\/span>When searching
\nbrings back a long list of results, young people have difficulty assessing the relevance of the materials,
\nand often print out pages with no more than a glance at them. “<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhile media literacy and information literacy have developed as separate traditions, they share many of the same values.
\nIn general, the \u201cmedia literacy\u201d tradition stresses the understanding, comprehension, critique and creation of media materials,
\nwhereas the \u201cinformation literacy\u201d tradition stresses the identification, location, evaluation and use of media materials. Metaphorically,
\nwe might say that \u201cmedia literacy\u201d sees media as a lens through which to view the world and express oneself, while \u201cinformation literacy\u201d
\nsees information as a tool with which to act on the world. Both perspectives are relevant for developing media literacy policy.\u201d
