| Sumario: | Objective: This article aims at presenting na overview of analyzing three theoretical models that address information literacy in its transformational perspective, emphasizing its characteristics and similarities. Methods: By using a narrative literature review, characteristics and similarities of the three theoretical models are emphasized. The concept of information literacy was analyzed, as well as a brief history of the evolution of the concept of information literacy to support the analysis of the three selected models, the Seven Faces of information literacy, the Six Frames of information literacy and the GeST model. Results: The transformational view of information literacy is based on Foucault, whose theory addresses the relationship between knowledge and power, and on the Frankfurt School theoretical framework, which consists of a critical view and seeks to transform social reality through changing the status quo, especially for vulnerable populations and societies. Conclusions: The three models analyzed have different representations of the information literacy phenomenon included in information practices in different contexts, and provide a non-hierarchical view, but with increasing complexity in the use of information. |
