WHAT IS MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERACY (MIL)?

Media and information literacy enables people to interpret and ma ke informed judgme nts
as users of information and media, as well as to become skillful creators and producers of
information and me dia messages in their own right. MIL combines media literacy and information
literacy under one term, and includes a combination of competenc ies. Media literacy emphasizes
the ability to understand me dia functions, evaluate how they are performed and use them for self-
expression, while information literacy e mphasizes the importance of access to information and the
evaluation and ethical use of such information. It recognizes the primary role of information and
media in our everyday lives. It focuses on the freedom of expression and information since it
empowers citizens to understand the functions of me dia and other information providers, to
evaluate their content, and to make informed criticism as users and producer of information and
media content.

Information Literacy and Media Literacy are traditionally seen as separate fields. It is the
strategy that brings together these two fields as a combined set of competencies (knowledge, skills
and attitude) necessary for life and work today. MIL considers all forms of me dia and other
information providers such as libraries, archive, museums, Internet and other technology used.

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF BEING A MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERATE PERSON?

The importance of being a media and information literate person is very crucial nowadays because
we are living in the 21st century which revolves us with rapid growth of technologies such as television,
computers, cellphones, radio’s and other medium for information. Being literate about media and
information will give us advantage in our modern world today especially in terms of giving and gathering
information knowing best most of the false and accurate information in different kinds of medium especially
in media. A country with citizens that is media and information literate will gain more advantage compare to
other countries which stays in traditional way of being literate such as referring to libraries, archive,
newspaper etc. Mostly in terms of good governance and accountability. Some other benefits are to improve
the quality of life, improved learning environment and more cohesive learning units.
