How to improve your information technology literacy

Information literacy is mainly composed of information consciousness, information wisdom and information morality. In the information society, educational technicians with these qualities will have a positive impact on educational technology work. (1) Information Consciousness The information consciousness of educational technicians refers to the feeling, perception, emotion and will of educational technicians on information and information work. The information consciousness of educational technicians must control their information behavior, and the strength of information consciousness will directly affect the effect of educational technicians' information behavior. The information consciousness of educational technicians is embodied in the conscious understanding of the historical inevitability of the reform of educational technology center in the information society. Educational Technology Center is a modern teaching implementation and guarantee unit that uses modern educational theory and modern educational technology to design, develop, utilize, evaluate and manage the teaching process and learning resources. The network information environment of the information society has brought the most severe test to the Educational Technology Center in history: students can get all kinds of information from the computer network through the local area network (campus network) and the Internet while sitting in front of the terminal. Where is the educational technology center going? This challenging problem has brought great pressure and motivation to the educational technology center. Educational technicians are soberly aware that if the educational technology center wants to survive and develop in the information society, it should not only stay at the level of "filming, playing tapes and repairing machines", but should be upgraded from a simple teaching service type to a teaching-oriented teaching reform type. Its functions include audio-visual teaching, computer-aided teaching, computer multimedia network teaching and so on. It is necessary to use modern means to effectively manage various teaching information resources and promote the exchange and sharing of information resources. Finally, it provides students with optimized, targeted, efficient and all-round teaching information services to achieve the best learning effect. The information consciousness of educational technicians is reflected in their conscious understanding of information value and keen judgment and analysis. From the philosophical point of view, the process of human understanding the world is the process of constantly acquiring and processing external information, while the process of human transforming the world is the process of reflecting the "subjective" information obtained by processing and processing external information to the outside world. The value of information has been generally recognized by modern people, and in the information society, educational technicians also have a deep understanding of it. All universities regard the development and utilization of information as an important way to broaden the teaching content and improve the teaching effect. Recognizing the value of information can form the conscious information consciousness of educational technicians and turn it into their own conscious actions, so as to face the vast amount of information, keenly find valuable information and pass it on to users. (II) Information Wisdom The information wisdom of educational technicians refers to the ability of educational technicians to manage, evaluate, design, develop and utilize information resources by using modern information technology knowledge. Information wisdom is the objective requirement of the functional transformation of educational technicians. The education technology center in the information society is a station of the information superhighway, and its information resources are: video information resources; Information resources of electronic carriers; Network information resources, etc. Therefore, the function of educational technology center is no longer limited to the single media teaching method of audio-visual information processing, but to realize the sharing of teaching resources in a wider range through information network. The functions of educational technicians have also changed accordingly. () information manager. The surge of information and the extension of information dissemination channels require educational technicians to become information managers, and identify, debate, select and reorganize various information resources such as online teaching information of teachers and students, vast online information, etc., so as to make them orderly and establish an information resource system needed for teaching. () Information developer. After professional training, educational technicians can participate in the development and utilization of information resources, establish various professional databases and put them on the Internet in a focused and planned way; We can develop all kinds of information by building distinctive online resources; Undertake all kinds of related information consultation. Educational technicians become information experts, and through these, they develop information products such as words, pictures, sounds and images that meet the needs of users, so that information can be used to the greatest extent. () Master of modern information technology. In the information society, the library education technology center first establishes a local area network to realize the networking of its own digital information exchange, and then links with the external network to establish its own WEB server and provide it to users through the home page. Educational technicians are responsible for the automatic management of the educational technology center and are familiar with the application of various modern information technologies such as computer technology, multimedia technology and network technology. And undertake the ability to use user information resources and train teachers to use various software technology tools. The repositioning of functions requires educational technicians to adapt to the development of information society, master relevant informatics knowledge and modern information technology knowledge, and improve their information wisdom in addition to their original professional knowledge. Information wisdom is the inherent requirement for educational technicians to carry out information technology work. The knowledge base of information wisdom is informatics knowledge and modern information technology knowledge, and its manifestation is the ability of educational technicians to process and use information and the ability to apply information technology. () Information is an intangible resource. The generation of information shows great randomness and discreteness in time and space, which is difficult to identify and grasp. Educational technicians must have the ability to identify and grasp the value of information resources, so as to improve their judgment, insight, innovation ability and information processing ability, and lay a good foundation for the information technology work of educational technology center. () Information is a renewable resource, which can be reused and enjoyed by * * *. In order to develop and utilize information resources deeply, extensively and continuously, the knowledge and skills that educational technicians must possess include: the research of teaching information services and objects, the psychological and behavioral laws of information users, the analysis and evaluation of information utilization methods and effects, the development and application of teaching information, etc. Therefore, educational technicians can ensure the full and effective use of information resources and realize the ultimate goal of teaching optimization. () The transformation of information forms is value-added. The traditional educational technology work is mainly the transformation of information form processed for two or more times, such as projecting teaching content or playing teaching videos, which produces information value-added effect. By using modern network and digital technology, the existing form of information is reasonably transformed, so that information has different spatial and temporal performance characteristics and is easier for users to identify and use. Therefore, mastering the necessary modern information technology constitutes the necessary knowledge and skills for educational technicians, including: computer principle and architecture, programming and database principle, computer network and communication, development and management of network information resources, design and application of multimedia network teaching courseware, information system design, etc. With the ability to apply information technology, educational technicians can optimize the method of rational transformation of information forms and make educational technology work icing on the cake. (III) Information Morality Information morality refers to the morality in the whole information activity, which is the sum of norms regulating the relationship among information developers, service providers and users. Educational technicians in the information society should consciously follow certain information moral standards to regulate their behavior and activities. Its main contents include: information exchange is coordinated with the overall social goal; Abide by information laws and regulations and resist illegal information behavior; Respect the intellectual property rights of others; Correctly handle the relationship between information development, dissemination and use. For example, intellectual property issues such as information citation, reproduction and consultation encountered in information technology work; The right and obligation to publish teaching publications; Standardized management and application of network information. Education and technical personnel are required to have the information moral consciousness of standardized management.
