Lifelong learning, cultural expression and personal fulfillment: since our highly
reflexive, heavily mediated symbolic environment informs and frames the
choices, values and knowledge that give significance to everyday life, media and
information literacy contributes to the critical and expressive skills that
support a full and meaningful life, and to an informed, creative and ethical
society.
In this media-saturated society, information comes not only through the
written words but also through the images and sounds. Media literacy can
allow students to fluently read and write audio/visual language would have

Lifelong learning means education resulting from integration of formal, nonformal, and informal education so as to create ability for continuous lifelong
development of quality of life. Lifelong learning covers the whole range of
learning. That includes formal and informal learning and workplace learning. It
also includes the skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours that people
acquire in their day to day experience. Information literacy forms the basis for
lifelong learning. It is common to all disciplines to all environments and to all
levels of education, while recognizing the disparities in learning styles and in
the nature and development of literacy in different countries. It enables
learners to master content and extent their investigations to become self
directed. Information literacy aims to develop both critical understanding and
active participation. It enables students to interpret and make informed
judgements as user of information sources; but it also enables them
to become producers of information in their own right, and thereby to become
more powerful participants in society.
