Reading Bruce’s book has been illuminating. Her relational approach has opened up a whole new and much more refreshing view of IL. True, the book is now ten years old, but it has been an excellent starting point, as it cuts through the older IL theory based on skill sets and taxonomies. Certainly, from what cursory survey of the literature I have done so far, at this early stage, there has not been any seminal developments in the IL scholarship. Bruce’s work is focused in the HE sector, and I am eager to see examples of IL in a non-academic/professional work based contexts Is IL really the 21st century successor to the general literacy (and Education) of the 19th century, which proved to be one of the enablers for the technological development that powered Industrial Revolution in Victorian Britain?
