What is the difference between? Computer literacy refers to the degree of computer operation familiarity or ease of use. In other words, it’s the ability to use a computer to conduct research projects and data mining. I will liken computer literacy to toolbox literacy for a carpenter. The carpenter could be an apprentice or a master. One has minimum toolbox literacy and the other has maximum toolbox literacy.
Information literacy refers to critical thinking or the ability to conduct effective environmental scanning of all available information, screen out irrelevant information, and screen in relevant information. This cognitive processing of information leads to synthesis of solutions to the questions at hand.
Integration literacy refers to the ability to bring together successful traditional proven education/learning methods and 21st century technology. Once they are brought into each others presence they are joined into an integrated union with the best potentialities of the past, present, and future. One example is a life-long appreciation of music integrated or joined to the technological ‘enhancement’ of high-quality sound engineering.
