  3. What Do We Need to Know To… • Be a competent and literate member of the information society? • Find, organize, retrieve and disseminate the information we need/have? • Cope with the vast amounts of information we are bombarded with each day (InfoGlut) ? • Manage our own knowledge efficiently?

  4. What is Personal Knowledge Management? • It is a system or strategy designed by individuals to • Organize and integrate personally important information • transform random pieces of information into something that can be systematically applied and that expands our personal knowledge • Similar to information literacy

  5. Seven PKM Competencies • Based on work done by Paul Dorsey, et al., Millikin University • Acquiring information and ideas • Evaluating information and ideas • Organizing information and ideas • Analyzing information and ideas

  6. Seven Areas, continued… • Cpnveying information and ideas • Collaborating around information and ideas; and • Securing information and ideas • Source:Paul Dorsey, Millikin University, Decatur, IL. Dorsey (http://www.millikin.edu/)

  7. Basis of Information Literacy • a set of abilities • "[I]nformation literate people are those who have learned how to learn • …”they know how knowledge is organized, how to find information, and how to use information in such a way that others can learn from them. They are people prepared for lifelong learning." • Source: American Library Association Presidential Committee on Information Literacy: Final Report. (Chicago: ALA), 1989.

  8. Comments • Many of the information literacy resources stop at presenting methods for assuring that you can keep information and ideas • But, PKM gives you tools and hints for finding, evaluating, organizing, analyzing, presenting, collaborating and securing information and ideas

  9. Information Literacy vs Informatics Competencies • Council on Linkages Competencies Project • Public Health Informatics Competencies
