Abstract

The authors of this study tried to explore the current status of the levels of information literacy of foreign students in Korea where many foreign students, mainly from several Asian countries, have been moving continuously into various universities. To do this, a survey was conducted of 202 Chinese students enrolled in universities in Busan and its neighboring area. They responed that their level of information literacy was slightly above the middle range and that the fields of 'information ethics' and 'information communication technology' were relatively high whereas 'information production, communication and sharing' and 'information investigation and search' were relatively low.

본 연구는 최근 국내에 급격히 증가하고 있는 외국인 유학생들이 원활한 학업수행을 위해 반드시 보유해야 하는 정보리터러시 수준이 어떠한지를 살펴보기 위해 부산과 인근지역 4년제 대학에 재학 중인 중국인 유학생 202명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 중국인 유학생들은 스스로 자신들의 정보리터러시 수준을 중간점수보다 조금 높은 정도라고 응답하였고, 구체적으로 <정보윤리/정보문화>, <정보통신기술>, <정보요구 인식/정보원 파악> 영역은 상대적으로 높게 평가되었으며, <정보분석/종합/관리>, <정보생산/소통/공유>, <정보조사/정보검색> 등은 상대적으로 낮게 평가되었다.
