Institution Deakin University Faculty Faculty of Education Degree name M.Dist.Ed. Date submitted 1996 Keyword(s) Adult learning - Australia Information services - User education - Australia Libraries and education - Australia Distance education - Australia Summary This exploratory and qualitatively based study unites the concepts of self-directed learning and information literacy in the external higher education environment.
