Macklin describes a method for teaching information literacy using problem-basedlearning.1 He explains that this “… teaching strategy takes everyday situations and createslearning opportunities from them.” Snavely writes that, “Librarians collaborate with instructorsto set up problems and questions so students will participate in their own discovery andlearning.”2 Kesselman and Sherman helped to develop an interdisciplinary course with facultyfrom Communication, the library school, and Food Manufacturing Technology.3 Studentsworked

Engineering, written initially without the experience ofdata collection for assessment, draw on both the ACRL information literacy standards for highereducation (referred to below simply as ACRL) as well as the information literacy standards forscience and technology (ILST8). Because the Engineering standards were written at the level ofthe performance indicators provided in the two sets of standards, they are therefore written at ahighly detailed level9. However, ABET outcomes assessment occurs at a broader level, in whichany number of detailed abilities may be brought as evidence of achievement of a single broaderoutcome. We agreed that the ABET outcomes were fairly analogous to the five ACRL standards
