Minneapolis, MN. While working at ADC, Brian volunteered at the Science Museum of Minnesota and quickly discovered a passion for teaching and working with students - especially in an environment that fostered and supported the ”wow” factor associated with in- quiry and discovery. In 2007, Brian left the world of engineering to pursue a career in education. For the past 5 years, Brian has taught various levels of high school physics, mathematics, applied technology, and robotics. Brian joined Sparkfun Electronics to help integrate ”tinkering,” electronics, and computational thinking into the classroom. One of his goals is to help teachers to de-mystify how household consumer electronics work. With a few simple tools

Students are bound to benefit from a focus on “the ability to engage inlife-long learning” -- one of the ABET criteria and a foundation of information literacyinstruction.Our institution requires all students to have at least one class with an embedded informationliteracy component.7 For engineering students, that class is ES 1000, which has the statedobjectives of teaching students to “pose a research question

, students in this course have been offeredthe option of attending a hands-on library workshop and receiving extra credit on a relatedproject report. Since several hundred students enroll in over 25 sections of this course each fall,the workshop format was developed as an alternative to traditional one-shot library instruction,which is not practicable on this scale. To better assess how the workshops were serving thestudents in these large classes, a group of instructors from the class and the engineering librarianworked together to evaluate student success with research projects and overall informationliteracy within the freshman engineering curriculum. The first initiative was to design a citationstudy assessing submitted projects for quality and

We should be intentional about usingassessment results in an actionable, impactful way. The tenets of CIPF deem both assessment ofteaching and student learning essential. Assessment is an imperative and integrative componentof critical pedagogy that addresses classroom diversity. If assessment is used properly, it cantransform the hegemonic relationship between students and instructors.

Information for Non-Engineers – A Case Study in Interdisciplinary Application of the ACRL FrameworkAs Washington State University becomes increasingly interdisciplinary, the need is increasingfor collaboration between librarians and instructors to introduce non-engineering students totechnical literature. Understanding technical literature is challenging even for the very engineerswho are versed in the vocabulary and procedures of their discipline. Hence, training non-engineer students to use this literature is a substantial challenge. Over the course of several years,the ACRL framework for information literacy in higher education has been integrated into theengineering curriculum. Over this time several core lessons have emerged: 1

the need to organize, store and retrieve printed patentdocuments efficiently and quickly. Even today in an era of massive online patent databases,integrated thesauri, and semantic search engines, patent classification is a useful tool for prior artsearching and patent analysis. Keyword searches in patent databases are problematic for severalreasons. First of all, keyword searches locate words, not ideas or concepts. It is very difficult toinclude in a search all the terms and synonyms that may represent a technological concept.3Language presents another major challenge to keyword searching.
