The purpose of this study is to define the concept of media information literacy and to develop educational content. To achieve the purpose of the study, literature analysis, interviews with field experts, and surveys with teacher librarians were conducted. The field experts recognized the media as a tool to use information and recognized information problem-solving skills, reading comprehension ability, media functions, case activities, and affective domain as the areas of media information literacy education. The teacher-librarians thought that information and media literacy which include its competency and educational content are more important than the digital literacy. As a result of the study, the concept of media information literacy was defined as knowledge, skills, and attitudes including the concepts of literacy, media literacy, information literacy, and digital literacy. In addition, educational contents of media information literacy were developed so that 'participation in democratic society', 'classification of media tools and contents', 'basic human rights', 'skills', 'digital tool manipulation' and 'information problem solving process' can be combined and applied in context.

As the digital informatization society deepens, the digital divide of the information - underprivileged becomes increasingly serious social problem. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between digital informatization capacity and satisfaction level of leisure activity in low - income class. For the analysis, we analyzed the relationship between digital informatization level and leisure satisfaction level of the low income class based on the results of the digital information gap survey in 2017. As a result, it was found that there was a positive relationship between digital access and leisure activity satisfaction, such as having a wired / wireless information device at low socioeconomic level and availability of Internet access at all times. Second, digital information capacity level and leisure satisfaction level such as PC usage ability and mobile digital device utilization ability have positive (+) relationship. Third, the level of digital information utilization, such as the use of fixed and mobile Internet, also showed a positive (+) relationship with the leisure satisfaction level of the low income class. This suggests that it is necessary to provide various supports to resolve the digital divide between the low income class and the general public.

The purpose of this research is to empirically examine the effects of motivation and skill for digital devices and the Internet on the use of online services in the severely disabled people. In addition to the general effect of digital divide, particularly for the case of severely disabled people, the effects of physical and mental inconvenience of individuals were taken into account and the moderating effect was confirmed by classifying the groups that need help with online activities and those that do not. The 2018 Digital Divide Survey data of the National Information Society Agency was used for the study. As a research method, path analysis and multi-group analysis using a sequence access model to Internet use were performed. As a result, it was confirmed that even in the case of the disabled, the motivational factor affects the skill for digital device operation and Internet use, and this access skill sequentially affects the use of online services. In particular, it was found that the effect of strategic and technical skill for internet use is the most important for the use of online services for the disabled rather than the motivation or a simple operational skill for digital devices. In addition, it was found that even in the disabled group, those requiring help in using the Internet was more passive in using the online service than the rest in the group. The results of this study suggest the need for stronger capacity for physical access as well as support in building strategic and technical skills that enhance responsibilities and protect from risks in using the Internet among the people with disabilities.

This research categorizes the factors of digital capital accumulated both in personal and social level into digital access and digital competence, and empirically analyzes how the use of public libraries effects on the formation of digital capital. As a result, it was found that participation in public library programs, the use of information services, and the utilization of digital collections had positive effect on the formation and accumulation of digital capital at the personal and social level. In contrast, it was analyzed that the use of digital collections in public libraries did not significantly affect the creation of digital contents or reciprocal collaboration based on online networks. Therefore, in order for public libraries to fully support the formation of digital capital, they should not only provide knowledge and information which is a traditional role of public libraries, but also play a role as a digital-based cooperative system.

The purpose of this study is to explore practical intervention strategies by identifying the relationships among digital informatization capacity, level of digital informatization accessability and life satisfaction of disabled people and to determine differences among these relationships depending on perceived level of social support networks. The participants were 1,639 disabled people from the 2017 digital information gap survey and the results, based on structural equation modeling and multi-group analysis, are as follows. First, digital informatization capacity has a positive influence on the level of digital informatization accessability(β=.65), and life satisfaction(β=.08). The level of digital informatization accessability also has positive influence on life satisfaction(β=.44). Second, the analysis result of the mediated effects of digital informatization accessability level between digital informatization capacity and life satisfaction was significant at a level (β=.29) even greater than the direct effect of digital informatization capacity on life satisfaction. Third, digital information capacity and digital informatization accessability have an influence on life satisfaction regardless of their perceived level of social support. The findings suggest that creating online environments where disabled people can enjoy leisure, culture, and social interaction with high accessibility and utility are as important as providing education for improving their digital informatization capacity.

21세기 '신경제' 시스템에서 흔히 지식은 '미래 경제의 석유'로 비유된다. 그만큼 경제를 추진하는 역량이 크다는 말이다. 대체로 데이터가 수치화된 자료, 즉 조각난 정보라면 그것이 모인것이 '정보', 이후 쓰임새를 갖춘 통합된 정보가 '지식'으로 분류된다. 그런데 이 지식을 창출하고 저장하는 방식은 컴퓨터ㆍ위성ㆍ휴대전화ㆍ인터넷, 기타 디지털 기술의 확산으로 급격하게 변하고 있다. 또 아울러 지식이 쇠퇴하는 속도도 빨라져서 엘빈 토플러의 용어대로 수많은 지식들이 금방 '무용지식(obsoledge)'으로 전락하고 만다.

Our society is evolving into an aging society. The purpose of this study is to investigate how digital informatization capacity of elderly people, one of the so - called information - neglected people, affects social activities. To this end, we analyzed the relationship between digital informatization level and social activity satisfaction level of old elderly people based on the results of the digital information gap survey in 2017. As a result, it was found that there was a positive relationship between digital access and satisfaction level of social activities, such as whether elderly people have wired / wireless information devices and internet accessibility. Second, it was found that digital information capacity level such as PC usage ability and mobile digital device utilization ability had a positive (+) relationship with only social activities. Third, the level of satisfaction with social activities increased as the level of digital information utilization increased, such as whether they were using wired and mobile Internet. This suggests that the government needs a policy to resolve various information gaps that can enhance the level of digital informatization of elderly people.
