This is the first of two volumes that explore contemporary issues in
information and media literacy. Undoubtedly, such forms of literacy are
current and exciting topics. As the chapters in this and the
accompany-ing volume show information and media literacy presents new
and demanding challenges to policy makers, education managers, teachers
and educational practitioners and perhaps above all, students.
Literacy, be it information, media, digital, visual or any number of a
rapidly growing forms of literacy must be understood as the result of
educational activity. Literacy comes through learnt practice and
educa-tional activity is the formalization of such activity. The
chapters in these volumes explore the practice, necessity and
interpretation of such education.
