Abstract

Background of the study: Teachers have a vital role in education, which includes educating and guiding students, developing teaching materials, preparing lesson plans, and performing student evaluations. Therefore, individuals need information in order to complete their educational objectives. Purpose: This review aims to systematically examine the three constituent elements of information-seeking behavior, with a particular emphasis on their application within the teaching field. Method: The systematic literature evaluation in this study was guided by the PRISMA approach. The study's data collecting phase spanned a period of twenty years, specifically from 2003 to 2023. The study's results encompassed an extensive review of 25 research papers about the information-seeking behavior shown by educators. This review employed an inductive approach to data analysis. Findings: Teachers demonstrate a preference for selecting information sources that encompass digital, printed, and interpersonal types. Teachers prioritize information sources that are familiar, user-friendly, and have a well-designed interface. Teachers have several barriers when seeking information, which can be attributed to both internal and external constraints. Conclusion: This study draws on studies related to teachers' information behavior published in the last 20 years. Our goal is to comprehensively understand the information sources teachers use, their awareness of these sources of information, and the constraints they encounter when information-seeking.

Abstract

Background of the study: Students need to have good information literacy in order to complete their studies effectively and efficiently. Purpose: to analyze the characteristics and information literacy of students at State Islamic Religious Universities (PTKIN). Method: quantitative approach with survey methods. Data collection uses online questionnaire distribution. Data analysis techniques use descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Findings: PTKIN students accessed social media ≤ 6 hours every day (60.23%); classified as generation Z (digital natives) aged 10-25 years (98.86%); the number of gadgets owned is 1 (88.64%); the majority have WhatsApp (100%), Instagram (92.05%), YouTube (79.55%) and Twitter (53.41%); the most frequently accessed social media is WhatsApp (61.36%); the purpose of using social media is as a communication tool (83.36%), looking for information to support the thesis (80.68%), looking for entertainment/relaxation (70.45%), sharing information, opinions and/or knowledge (68.18%) , interacting socially (54.55%), interacting with friends (53.41%) and filling free time while waiting for something/free time (53.41%). The information literacy level of students at PTKIN is classified as moderate and tends to be high with an average score between 73 and 90 (73 ≤ X < 91). Factors that are positively related to information literacy are the availability of infrastructure, accessibility, independence and social support from lecturers and parents. Only the duration of internet access is negatively related to student information literacy at PTKIN. Conclusion: Students at PTKIN already have sufficient information literacy to support the completion of their studies. However, information literacy needs to be improved in order to maximize study completion on time.

Abstract

Background of the study: Fisherfolk are often exposed to physical hazards, environmental changes, economic fluctuations, and policy/regulatory changes while contributing to food security and economic development. Purpose: The study aimed to explore challenges in and ways to strengthen health information dissemination methods for fisherfolk in rural Ghana. Method: This study utilised a case study design with 26 participants from three rural fishing communities in Ghana's Keta Municipal District. Qualitative data was collected through interviews with five public health workers as well as focus group discussions with 21 fisherfolk. The study employed purposive and convenience sampling methods for the selection of participants. Data collected from the participants were analysed through the use of thematic analysis. Findings: The study revealed that fisherfolk depended on interpersonal and media sources to meet their multidimensional health information needs. Public health officials also leveraged interpersonal approaches to disseminate information to these communities. However, the fisherfolks encountered infrastructural and other barriers that hindered their ability to obtain health information. Conclusion: The study highlights the need to tailor health information dissemination approaches to the needs and preferences of fishing communities while strengthening the rural information infrastructure by the Ghana Health Service to more effectively disseminate and expand access to health information in these settings.

Abstract

Background of the study: In today's digitally saturated world, individuals face cognitive overload due to the vast influx of information, including misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation. Purpose: This study investigates the relationships between perceived experiences of misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation, and their impact on information overload among Malaysian students. Method: Data were collected from 352 Malaysian students using a survey method and analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Participants reported their perceptions of misinformation, disinformation, malinformation experiences, and information overload on a Likert scale. Findings: Results indicate that students experience moderate levels of misinformation, disinformation, and information overload, while malinformation was less prominent. Nevertheless, significant positive relationships were found between perceived misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation experiences, and information overload, suggesting that students encountering higher levels of these information types are more likely to experience cognitive overload. Conclusion: This study underscores the challenges students face in processing vast amounts of information. It contributes to the theoretical understanding of how misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation contribute to information overload and emphasizes the need for promoting information literacy and critical thinking to mitigate these effects.
