, COMPILING A WORK PLAN: WHY INFORMATION LITERACY IS ESSENTIAL IN
AN INFORMATION SOCIETY.
MAIN TOPIC: discuss why information literacy is essential in an information society
KEY WORDS: information literacy
Action words: discuss
AUDIANCE: lecture
FORM: academic essay
My thoughts
The topic requires me to discuss why information literacy is essential in an
information society this means I have to discuss in facts the value or
importance of information literacy.
It will also be of good character if I also discuss few of the vital roles that
information literacy has played in an information society
Think outside of the box about ethics in the information society.
The word “discuss” means that I really need to talk thoroughly why information
literacy is important in an information society.
I think it will also be of importance if I include the machines tools of
information society because their also part of information society(ICTs)
In Order for my reader to understand or to have a clear vision about what i am
on about I need to define my keywords in depth.
In my essay i am not allowed to copy definitions from my prescribed book or
study guide this means that I will have to access the internet and dictionary to
come up with clear definitions for my key words.
I am required to come up with one definition relevant to the topic in my own
words in order to do so i will consult different source to come up with 1
meaningful definition.
I am not allowed to copy the example of a work plan from my study guide this
means that i have to look up to it only to be guided on how to compile a work
plan or to be clear on how to compile a work plan.
I. My assignment headings:
i. Introduction
ii. Definitions
