Digital and Information Literacy: Set 4

Evolving with the changing times, literacy now involves a range of specialized skills; students must be visually literate, digitally literate, and technologically literate. Students must also learn how to apply ethical standards to the process--respecting the intellectual content, personal feelings, and safety of all members of the cyber-community, including their own. This exceptional series provides readers with a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of digital information gathering, content generating, social networking, and cyber-ethics (in academic, professional, and personal contexts). Featured subjects include Gaming, Google, Wikipedia, Blogs, Twitter and microblogging, and Foursquare and other location-based services. Each book is written in an engaging, helpful tone and is supported by sidebars and a full resource section for further exploration.
