And Information
Literacy

Trisha Mae Calpe

Media and Information Literacy (MIL) is a
combination of knowledge, attitudes, skills,
and practices required to access, analyze,
evaluate, use, produce, and communicate
information and knowledge in creative, legal
and ethical ways that respect human rights.
The UNESCO defines it as the set of competencies to
search, critically evaluate, use and contribute
information and media content wisely; the knowledge
of one's rights online; refraining from cyberbullying;
understanding related ethical issues; and engaging with
media and ICTS to promote equality, free expression,
intercultural/interreligious dialog, peace, etc.
 Aspects of MIL
According to Reineck and Lublinski (2015),
MIL is the optimal outcome of media,
information and communication technology
(ICT) education along three aspects: technical
skills, critical attitudes and facts about media
and ICT.
 Aspects of MIL
Technical skills involve ability to access and use
computers, mobile and other technical devices
that offer media and information content.
UNESCO's (2011) MIL curriculum delves on
"accessing information effectively and
efficiently" as an aspect put into practice.
