Competence Area 1 encompasses articulating and fulfilling information needs, researching, filtering, storing and managing digital data, information and content. It also includes the critical assessment of data sources, analysis of data and their organisation and processing. The critical evaluation of digital content now systematically includes the detection of mis- and disinformation as well as biases and hallucinations in AI-supported systems. It goes beyond classical source criticism to include critical judgement under the conditions of automated, generative and personalised information environments.
