What’s More
One can become knowledgeable in media and information if one knows how to give
the correct information, are open to sharing the information with everyone, provide
answers to questions, and assist others to improve in their knowledge.
Sure, I consider myself to be media and information literate. There are several
advantages to media literacy, some of which include the capacity to detect and
differentiate good from bad information as well as the ability to filter through and pick
the proper information. We are not readily influenced by negative influences that are
harmful to us.
Citing and sharing information, publishing and sharing photographs, viewing and
creating videos or movies, texting, writing blogs or making posts, and researching
are some of the behaviors or actions that demonstrate media and information
literacy.

Illustrating MIL
Understanding media and its function in our society is built on media and information
literacy. It teaches some of the core skills necessary for critical thinking, analysis, self-
expression, and creativity—all of which are required of citizens.
What I Can Do
The use of media and information literacy as a tool for promoting civic responsibility and
national development has shown to be extremely effective. We may learn more about
things relevant to our country's economy from people in other nations when we access
social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and other social media. By
highlighting to everyone in society that media is not restricted to television, you as a
student can help your nation progress. Another excellent method of developing a
country is to educate the public on how to deal with the media and information. I may
say that I helped our country improve by being updated about events taking place
around the country and using social media to inform peers and individuals in my
community or country. Begin by teaching some of your peers how to assess internet
news sources and media. Based on what you've learned as a student, educate children
on the proper and sensible use of media, teaching students about right and wrong
media usage would help not only our country but also the rest of the globe.
