- Abstract
This paper deals with a study of third year midwifery students’ opinion on information skills built in the subject “Informatics”. The survey was conducted with 30 students in midwifery from Medical University Plovdiv. Information skills are a part of the digital literacy, seen as an important literacy in today's technological world. The results indicated that the students enhanced their skills in all four investigated aspects: information problem definition; search and retrieval; evaluation of information on the internet; and ethical use of information, despite their different levels of skills acquired in the secondary education. Improved information skills are evaluated by the students as useful for both learning and future professional realization. Although its limitations, the study shows the value of the lessons learned in informatics from the point of view of the students. It can be extended to other healthcare specialties that study informatics as a compulsory discipline.
