Abstract: | The chapter reports findings of a doctoral study at Moi University, Kenya from 2006 to 2012.The aim of the study was to investigate the prospects of re-engineering information literacy programmes (ILPs) in selected Nairobi-based public and private universities and develop a model that could be used to address the issue. This study was based on a mix of Jerome Seymour Bruner’s (1971) theory of discovery learning and the Seven Ways or Faces model developed by Australian-based researcher Christine Bruce (1997). The study design was both exploratory and cross-sectional. The chapter posits that with the changing information management landscapes brought about by ever-evolving technologies, it is important to consider the proposed model to adapt current ILPs. |
