Stages / Elements of
Information Literacy
In this context these questions

Information Literacy
Information Literacy
✗ A set of individual competencies needed to
identify, evaluate and use information in the
most ethical, efficient and effective way across
all domains, occupations and professions.
✗ It refers to the ability to recognize when
information is needed and to locate, evaluate,
effectively use and communicate information in
its various formats

17
Ethical use of Information
“There are times when you need to share
information that you have acquired from various
sources written by different authors. It is inevitable
to directly quote their words in order to preserve
their meaning. However, quoting someone else's
words without giving credit to the author
essentially gives an impression that you are
claiming ownership of the words they have said.
This is called plagiarism.”

18
Plagiarism
It is using other people’s words and ideas without clearly acknowledging
the source of the information.

All of the following are considered plagiarism:

✗ turning in someone else's work as your own

✗ copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
✗ failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
✗ giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
✗ changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source
without giving credit
✗ copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the
majority of your work, whether you give credit or not

19
Common Knowledge

These are facts that can be found in

numerous places and are likely to be
widely known.

20
Interpretation
You must document facts that are not
generally known, or ideas that interpret
facts.

21
Quotation
This is using someone’s words directly.
When you use a direct quote, place the
passage between quotation marks, and
document the source according to a
standard documenting style.

22
Paraphrase
Using someone’s ideas, but rephrasing
them in your own words. Although you
will use your own words to paraphrase,
you must still acknowledge and cite the
source of the information.
