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.
