Information Behaviour and Practices (OPEN UNI)
Why do we seek information – and why sometimes don't we want to know? The course examines the acquisition, sharing, and production of information from the perspective of individuals and communities, and helps to understand how information use practices take shape in different situations.
From
5 cr
We interact with information every day - seeking, receiving, sharing and producing it. Sometimes we also avoid information, for a variety of reasons. This course provides perspectives for understanding the ways in which individuals and communities acquire, share and produce information. It will also introduce you to theoretical concepts and models related to information behaviour and practices.
