week 12

this was the final week, we spent this week gettin everything together and we had one final meeting this week to make sure everything was sorted for our assessment submission. turns out classes were cancelled this week because of the weather so i did some revision of some of the topics we had covered in clasws that i had found most interesting.
• To explore innovative means of information seeking
• To examine the strategies of successful information seekers

I looked at the different theories behind information seeking behaviour...
e.g. Zipf's Principle of Least Effort, Brenda Dervin's Sense Making, Elfreda Chatman's Life in the Round - seek to understand the processes that surround information seeking. i found these to be very enthralling.
