These different types of literacy can really be interrelated. Information literacy is knowing how to find, analyze, and use information; the ability to gather information from multiple sources, select relevant material, and organize it into a form that will allow the user to make decisions or take specific actions.
Computer literacy is the knowledge and understanding of computers and their uses.
Integration literacy is the ability to use computers and other technologies combined with a variety of teaching and learning strategies to enhance students' learning; matching appropriate technology to learning objectives, goals, and outcomes.
Although literacy is used and obtained in each, the manner in which each is acquired is different. 21st century literacy will be have a new look. The days of book, pencil and paper are gone because the 21st century learners lives have been digitally changed. These learners have been born into a techno age. They are knowledgeable and open to different learning modes. Now we have to find new tools to challenge them so that their learning flourishes in a whole new way! Net generation students go to school wanting to create! If students learn by doing, we have to teach by letting them do!
