Abstract

In the digital age, the ability to critically evaluate information is more important than ever. This article explores the relationship between information literacy and critical thinking in educational contexts. It argues that improving students' skills in locating, analyzing, and evaluating information significantly contributes to the development of critical thinking. Pedagogical strategies and classroom practices for integrating information literacy into the curriculum are also discussed.
