It is very important to measure the information literacy which allows people to access or to use various information media including computers or wordprocessors.  The purpose of this paper is to measure and compare the media use capacity of 8th grade students in Japan, Taiwan and the United States. Specifically,  1. to determine media availability, media knowledge, media skills and exposure to sources of media information and instruction.  2. to analyze the effect of the media technology environment on the media use capacity of students.  3. to look for significant cross-national differences in media use between students in Japan, Taiwan and the United States.  The main results are shown in Figures 1 to 9. The level of general knowledge of electronic media of Japanese students is superior to the other two countries (see Fig.2). But the information literacy (media use capacity) of Japanese students is inferior to the United States' students (Fig.3), particulary computer use skills (Fig.8).  The policy of development of information literacy in education is also discussed in this pa per.  We would like to thank Dr. Sophia Wu of National Chengchi University in Taiwan and Mr. J. Kochever of Kochever Research Associates in USA for their cooperation in this research.}, pages = {35--56}, title = {児童の情報リテラシーの国際比較 : 日本・台湾・米国三か国比較}, volume = {17}, year = {} }
