I thought all of the information was really clear for the first week's lecture, so I don't really have a muddiest point. Although, I can say that there was one thing that I really liked that we went over in class. On one of the power points, Dr. Daqung showed the building blocks to wisdom.
Data- Information- Knowledge- Wisdom.
I think this was a really useful topic to go over, as it has also come up in two of my other classes. This was definatly useful review for the first class.

I agree. The very first discussion board question for LIS2000 was comparing information and knowledge. I used the pyramid as the bases of my response. It is really cool that the classes are intersecting with each other.
ReplyDeleteSometimes technology can be hard for me to grasp. I also appreciated the introduction on how informamtion begins as unprocessed information and changes into knowledge and wisdom. Information is useful in the last two stages because it "demonstrates a high level of understanding." I like the philosophical view on information and how it becomes valuable.
