Guided by the (ACRL), we use the following information literacy definition:
"Information literacy is the set of integrated abilities encompassing the reflective discovery of information, the understanding of how information is produced and valued, and the use of information in creating new knowledge and participate ethically in communities of learning."
The ºÃÉ«TV community selected GEARUP as the QEP in 2017 after a robust proposal process. Information literacy is relevant to every discipline and provides a valuable foundation to navigate, make sense of, and participate in an always evolving information environment. The goal of GEARUP is to ensure all ºÃÉ«TV students learn information literacy concepts that will help them succeed academically, professionally, and civically.
