Abstract
Academic and information literacies for the education degreeculturally diverse studentsare important and are often discussed among librarians’, learning support advisors, academics’ and administrators in academic organisations.In New Zealand tertiary organisations, graduate attribute outcomes sharpen the demands of students to develop critical skills along with writing, reading and listening skills. Graduate outcomes are an umbrella term used to cover a range of outcomes related to the knowledge, skills and values that are acquired through tertiary education. They encompass both graduate attributes and graduate profiles (Spronken-Smith et al., 2013). In this paper the researcher used the term graduate attribute to refer to a single attribute such as literacies, whereas a set of graduate attributes refer to a graduate profile, and this profile may be at the institution level or specific to the programme level or paper level.
