Focus on UDELAR's information policy, aimed at undergraduate, from the pragmatic model proposed by Hogwood and Gunn

Abstract

We propose an information policy (IP) in universities as a key to development. The aim is to identifythe IP's related actions that are thinked for undergraduates, analyzing them under the IP pragmatic scheme, while reflecting on the conditions given to undergraduate students in connection with the irresponsibilities for information skills. Problem analysis is divided into: complexity study, stakeholders identificafion, and the analysis of existing shares. Finally there are spaces where IP and information literacy (IL) converge. We conclude that the pragmatic model enables the identification of existing IP: according to this model most of the programs and actions are manifested in specific proposals, but failed to find places where you can view the IP as a role model.
