Information Literacy: Importance and Consequences
"Algorithms are a finite sequence of well-defined, computer-implementable instructions, typically to solve a class of problems or to perform a computation. They are neither inherently good nor evil, but they have consequences—ethical, philosophical, psychological, and of responsibilities. Those who develop and use them within systems have enormous power and authority."
"The paper assumes that to be informed is to be informationally literate, a concept that includes the many literacies that emerge and overlap in the current, dynamic information environment."
