Welcome to IC @ GHC! Starting Fall semester, Georgia Highlands is introducing a new program to help you organize and interpret data, which will improve student learning. We call the program IC @ GHC, shorthand for information competency. Information competency is the ability to recognize what type of information is needed, locate that information, evaluate it, and use it effectively. The faculty, staff and administration at GHC understand that information comes at people from all directions at great speed, and that it can be difficult and time consuming to sift through it all, whether it be finding sources for a term paper or locating travel information online, and we want to help.
During the school year, Area B of the core curriculum, which is mainly communications courses and introductory computing skills courses, will begin emphasizing information competency in curriculum and assignments. Each year, a new area of the core will begin to emphasize information competency as well. Eventually, these types of skills will be integrated across the entire curriculum, assisting all students to make better, more efficient choices about the information they need for their lives.
So, thanks for being a part of the first group to experience IC @ GHC. Thanks also for taking this brief information competency skills test. It will help us get the project going.
Have a great semester at GHC!
