Coalescing thoughts - What is the relationship between information literacy and student-centered learning? Typically the need for information literacy is associated with information ubiquity.

Would not this, at least sometimes, involve locating, and certainly evaluating and applying information to learn? While I see in the literature references to needing to teach students information literacy skills in a student-centered way, I haven't as of yet seen mention of a relation between the developments of the two concepts. More to come on this...
