Abstract:
|
The idea of information literacy, emerging with the advent of information technologies in the
early 1970s, has grown, taken shape and strengthened to become recognized as the
critical literacy for the twenty-first century. Sometimes interpreted as one of a number of
literacies, information literacy is also described as the overarching literacy essential for
twenty-first century living. Today, E-information literacy is inextricably associated with
information practices and critical thinking in the information and communication technology
environment’ This paper examines the developments in information literacy and provides
an over view of E-Information Literacy. |
