This book has two aims: firstly to present an investigation into
information literacy by looking at how people engage with
information to accomplish tasks or solve problems in personal,
academic and professional contexts (also known as the relational
approach). This view of information literacy illustrates a
learner-centred perspective that will be of interest to educators
who wish to go beyond the teaching of information skills. The
second aim of this book is to illustrate how the relational
approach can be used as an investigative framework. As a detailed
account of a relational study, this book will appeal to researchers
interested in using the relational framework to examine pedagogical
experiences from the learner s perspective.
Offers an investigation of the relational approach to examine
information literacy from the perspective of the learner and the
educator within diverse pedagogical conditions, both academic and
professionalPresents concrete examples of measuring the impact of
the information literacy experience through the application of
newly developed information literacy practices to unknown
situations (described as Transfer), or through the changes in the
learner s view of the world (described as Transformation)Written by
an internationally known scholar and practitioner of information
