First, the value of knowledge and information in the information age
The world is in an era of great changes in information and communication technology. Knowledge and information have become an important factor in social and economic development, and have increasingly penetrated into economic, cultural, political and other activities. Knowledge and information are indispensable foundations and necessities of the information society. Knowledge and information are as important to the information society as blood is to the human body. Without the circulation of knowledge and information, the information society will collapse and human society will fall into the crisis of historical retrogression. Knowledge and information are the main resources of the information economy, the important foundation of economic development and the wealth of the information society. With knowledge and information, there are advantages and opportunities for development. However, there are essential differences among knowledge, information and natural resources.
First of all, knowledge and information have timeliness. Knowledge and information are constantly updated, and today's possession does not guarantee eternal possession. Therefore, the possession of knowledge and information is a process of continuous progress.
Secondly, knowledge and information are shared and can be shared and copied. The energy of knowledge and information can only be released in the process of dissemination and application. So, believe in the Lord.
The method and approach of informatization is the key to obtain development opportunities and advantages in the information society, and the level of social informatization will be the decisive factor and measure of economic development level. Modern information technology makes the hypothesis of "global village" come true. In many fields, physical space distance is no longer a factor affecting the acquisition of products and services. Telemedicine, distance education, distance shopping, etc. With the help of modern information technology, the long-distance mode that breaks through the time and space constraints represents the birth of the global long-distance economy.
Second, the impact of information technology on educational content
Information technology promotes educational reform and learning revolution, the first of which is; The content is the reform and revolution of educational content. The gradual popularization of modern science and technology, especially the Internet, has greatly expanded students' knowledge sources. In the information age, students not only absorb knowledge from local cultural environment and books including family, society and school, but also learn knowledge from cross-cultural and cross-time electronic information resources through satellite TV and Internet. The expansion of knowledge resources provides a broader world for students' development, and also puts forward a new topic for school education-how to make students fully develop in the vast electronic space and become talents needed in the information age?
First of all, the information age needs knowledgeable talents. The wealth of human knowledge needs to be handed down from generation to generation, and imparting the accumulated knowledge of predecessors is still one of the main contents of school education. The timeliness of knowledge in the information society is stronger than ever, and the cycle of knowledge updating is shorter than ever. Therefore, the possession of knowledge is not only the inheritance of the accumulated knowledge of predecessors, but also the renewal of new knowledge.
Secondly, the information society needs not only talents who can learn, but also talents with cooperative ability. People usually think that dealing with computers all day will make people lose their emotional and interpersonal skills. It comes to a conclusion that in the information society, we only need to deal with machines, not feelings and interpersonal cooperation. In fact, although the development of computer network technology has reduced the opportunities of interpersonal communication, it does not mean that the importance of interpersonal communication and cooperation has been reduced. If the result of adopting machines in industrialization is that the collective labor mode of assembly line replaces the individual labor mode, which shows the importance of interpersonal cooperation, then the long-distance mode in the information society replaces the assembly line coordination with networked and more accurate system coordination. The concept of discipline, division of labor and cooperation, mutual understanding, mutual respect and mutual cooperation are all the abilities and qualities that people in the information society must possess. The United States, Australia and other countries often ask some questions from the beginning of primary school, and everyone cooperates to answer them, and then teachers compare them among groups to cultivate students' sense of collective honor.
