In the 21st century, it is important to be able to research and make wise decisions based on reliable information. In fact, employers have high expectations regarding their employees’ abilities to research. As discussed in the Post Your Introduction forum, due to the overwhelming amount of information available, researching and locating reliable sources to guide decision-making can be very challenging. Let’s examine in this discussion the challenges of research and how developing information literacy skills can help. |

Prepare: Read Chapter 1 of your textbook to learn more about information literacy. Next, read the “At Sea in a Deluge of Data” article from the Chronicle of Higher Education. Finally, read the “How College Students Find and Use Information” blog post to access an infographic detailing some statistics about the experience of researching. Having trouble accessing and reading the infographic above? As an alternative, you may alternatively explore the article, “Truth Be Told: How College Students Evaluate and Use Information in the Digital Age”, which served as a reference for the infographic. |

Reflect: Consider your reaction to the information in the infographic and identify areas that you connected with the most. Based on the article and Chapter 1 of your text, consider how information literacy skills can impact being a critical consumer of information. |

I really appreciate the work all your amazing writers do to ensure that my papers are always delivered on time and always of the highest quality. I was at a crossroads last semester and I almost dropped out of school because of the many issues that were bombarding but I am glad a friend referred me to you guys. You came up big for me and continue to do so. I just wish I knew about your services earlier.
