0006 Information Literacy (Lab)

“Knowledge is power”

Knowledge is power because through knowledge, we have the ability to decide for ourselves on what we should do in this world. The more one knows, the more one will be able to control events. Also, through knowledge we are able to influence other people about what we know.

Giving credits to a source is important because we are recognizing where the information came from and we are paying our respect to the person who made or told the information received.
