In my personal opinion I believe that information literacy is one of the most critical skills
that a 21st century educator and student should have. It can make the difference between a good
researcher and an excellent researcher, and it really distinguishes those that understand how to
use technology appropriately and adequately from those that don't understand how to use it.
Another reason why information literacy is so critical is because students practically have the
same availabilities in terms of information as teachers do, therefore they can easily verify
whether or not their teachers are truthful and accurate. This is so important because it really will
demonstrate a different caliber of teacher from those who don't know how to optimize the use of
the vast amounts of information available to us. It will also change teaching styles, since many
students could potentially find the information a teacher could present to a class online. This is
critical for the standards that are established for teachers because if they don't know how to
accurately evaluate, access and utilize information then how are they supposed to be able to
teach that to their students. It would be very difficult for them to be able to design assignments
and work that accurately portrays how students need to be accessing information and utilizing it
appropriately. One of the most important parts about finding information is figuring out whether
or not your use of that information is legal in the way that you are incorporating it into your own
work or another scenario. There can be issues with copyright and fair use, that if a student
doesn't have a throughout understanding of those rules because their teachers haven't taught
them, then their work might be fraudulent and technically not legal. Teachers that know what it
means to legally find and incorporate information into research will create students that will
know when it is appropriate for them to use for example an image from a website or an opinion
from a blog. There are so many different resources to choose information from nowadays that it's
critical for students to learn the skills and understand these rules and regulations because
technology begets improvement and creativity. This means that new technologies require more
specialized skills in order to accurately and efficiently find needed information.
