Looking for Creative Information Strategies and Ecological Literacy
Year: 2015
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Information strategies and creative information processing are considered for information literacy research. Information use patterns based on empirical and phenomenographic studies by selected authors are analyzed. Three case-studies are subject to meta-analysis resulting in identification of factors of information creativity and ecological information literacy. Ecological literacy is described. Main sources and aspects of creative information strategies as part of information literacy are presented in the final conceptual model. Three dimensions of the model are identified, including the problem-oriented, knowledge-oriented and the interactive strategies. For each dimension we determine main supportive strategies, such as conceptual structuring, conceptual exploration, and conceptual navigation. It is proposed to pay more attention to creative information strategies in information literacy research.
