. In fact, many of the ideas presented by theassociation are extracurricular in nature, which has been found to be ineffective for reachingengineering graduate students, according to meta-synthesis [1]. While librarians are oftenspecialized in the areas engineering graduate students lack and seek personal mentorship in, theyare often stuck in providing that support by ineffective means. The typical engineering curriculum does not have courses on research methods, few havecourses on research integrity or publication ethics, proposing research, writing, peer reviewing,or how your worldview influences your research [4, 5]. Published engineering literature, in fact,often leaves many of these important aspects of research as assumed [5

audiences. University engineeringprograms can fill this gap to promote their educational programs to youths in their regions. Theycan begin to integrate skill development with their outreach sessions to promote desiredengineering skills, or habits of mind, such as problem solving, collaboration, creativity,communication, ethical considerations, innovative thinking, etc. [3]. Recognizing the importanceof this preparation, the College of Engineering at the University of Nevada, Reno coordinatedsummer camp programming for middle and high school students to introduce them toengineering disciplines and get them excited about pursuing an education in this field. TheCollege of Engineering summer camp program primarily focused on exposing students

aspects of life [9]. Thisdefinition embodies the reality that use of AI will continue to grow and become an integral partof everyday life, and thus, it places the responsibility on the user to be a conscious consumer ofthe technology.AI Literacy Implementation Highlights To tackle the use of AI at our university head-on, a teaching team comprised of a first-year engineering instructor and a research-and-instruction librarian sought to explore how AIliteracy can be conscientiously, responsibly, and practically integrated into the first-yearengineering curriculum. The teaching team designed an instructional module with two goals inmind: first, to train students on how to use an AI large language model generative chatbot, andsecond, to train

reach students through integration into their courses. In 2020, Perez-Stable,Arnold, Guth, and Meer studied common forms of collaboration between librarians and faculty:“the most common form of collaboration was having a librarian teach in a course session, ...followed by having an online course guide, ... and making a referral to a specific librarian. Theleast common forms of collaboration were having a librarian presence in the course managementsystem (CMS) [and] having collaborative learning outcomes” [6, p. 56]. Pham and Tanner reporton the most common aims of librarian-faculty collaborations: “Their partnership entails a rangeof activities such as developing library resources, facilitating resource access and discovery andembedding

also used Nearpod with engineering students for instruction purposes [8].While the goal of this case study was to increase motivation and academic performance, theinstruction was not tied to information literacy. Instead, Romero Rodriguez used the gamificationaspects of Nearpod to deliver instruction on the engineering curriculum to two of their threecourse sections, with the last section receiving instruction as traditional lectures. They found thevast majority (98%) preferred the gamification instruction used in Nearpod to the traditionalmethods. In addition, 91% of forty-seven students surveyed shared that lectures using Nearpodincreased their motivation for the course topics. The gamified group also had an increasedpassing rate and higher

encounter.ConclusionBy integrating Open Science practices and tools into an undergraduate research course, studentslearned first-hand reproducible research practices. This course equipped students withfoundational knowledge of the scientific method and research lifecycle and provided hands-onexperience in utilizing digital tools for transparent and open dissemination of research outputs.While simultaneously learning about the steps to create and share research outputs, studentslearned how opening these outputs help outside researchers, collaborators, and themselves.Through research samples in Jupyter Notebooks in a reproducibility assessment, studentsuncovered insights into the practical application and impact of Open Science tools and practiceson the
