This resulted in 106 of 112 students giving consent: Fall 2017 (32students), Fall 2018 (42 students), and Fall 2019 (32 students). The course consisted of threemajor laboratory experiments. The lab report topics were convection, airfoil, and truck drag. Asthe semester progressed, the latter two topics were not based on knowledge from prerequisitecourses. Students were provided additional information literacy instruction to help with theirsearches. The supplemental instruction was also a part of an effort to improve students’information literacy skills in this program. Each experiment included theory presentationshalfway through
