This article reports on the development of a new model for information literacy (IL) learning design
created as part of Innovative Technologies for Engaging Classrooms (iTEC), a European project
focused on redesigning teaching and learning. Findings from this project, along with a review of
previous studies of IL models, demonstrate why a new approach is needed. The resulting model,
InFlow, has been designed to encourage students to engage with information in a variety of ways
as they map, explore, ask, make, reflect, imagine, show and collaborate. The rationale behind the
development of this model raises fundamental questions about current teaching practices in
relation to IL, such as the need to encourage collaborative working; the role of students as
producers of information as well as consumers; and the privileging of particular types of information
sources and outputs. This article describes the process by which this model was developed, based
on approaches used in iTEC, and explains how it responds to criticisms of existing models. A short
case study of the use of InFlow in a UK university library demonstrates how the model can work in
practice to create IL programmes for students of the 21st century.
