Now that we have two weeks left, I can honestly say I have learned so much in this Library class. I have really developed new skills in the world of research. I now understand the importance of currency on research and validility of the site I am searching. I have also learned to appreciate an actual Library!! :)
I loved the piece that was available to see on youtube. It was a very creative clip of "research."
Information Competency to me is the ability to effectivly search for information needed to perform reasearch. It is the ability to organize, analyze, and compose facts on topics you are reasearching. It is having the knowledge to gather notes from internet resources and paper/text sources as well., to produce the research paper you are aiming for.
I can say... " YES I AM. I AM AN INFORMATION COMPETENCY STUDENT!"
And I can say that and feel confident. With one more week ahead of us, I feel I can take with me the ability to find new sites that offer proper and valuable resourses. I now know how to search them effectivly and I will take that with me throughout my college years.
I am really glad I have taken this course!!
