FACIL: Modelo para avaliação da literacia digital e informacional

Abstract

Social changes brought about by the increasing use of information and communication technologies, notably the internet, imposed on governments the need to promote educational programs and projects for professional training in order to include people digitally, helping to reduce social inequalities and improving economic competitiveness. The educational digital inclusion has been usually evaluated by numerical data that do not capture the impact of these actions on the development of personal skills to enjoy autonomously informational resources. A model that enables qualitative analysis of the degree of digital and informational literacies reached by educational and vocational projects was developed. The Contextual Framework for Information Literacy Assessment (FACIL) provides a theoretical framework to evaluate social/digital inclusion programs outcomes. It also supports the creation of activities that helps to measure the development level of information and digital literacies by students. This article presents the theoretical basis and the methodology for model development, guidelines for its application and exemplifies with reporting test for validation and conclusions.
