The prominent educational theories of Vygotsky have just entered the discipline of information literacy. I will concentrate on three of his themes: the dialectical interdependence of the environment and the self, the need to relate to a student's potential rather than his or her achievement, and the inadequacy of most current measures of information literacy.
