Journal Title: Bibliotheca Nostra. Śląski Kwartalnik Naukowy - Year 2016, Vol 44, Issue 2

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study conducted among students of regular university courses in Humanities and Pedagogy, investigating their perceived self-effi cacy in personal information and knowledge management, with a special focus on the methods of stored information resources processing. The respondents’ self-effi cacy reports, obtained by means of a questionnaire, were compared with their evaluation by the researcher. The basis for the evaluation was a set of practical tasks, illustrating the activities listed in the survey questionnaire in the section I know I can…. Analysis of the results confi rmed good selfevaluation only in selected areas of activity, e.g. in set division, information selection and information search. Students’ effi cacy was not confi rmed in the areas of: forming knowledge structures, giving titles to main set subdivisions, and giving correct titles to multiple-element subsets.
