experiences.Dr. Marie C Paretti, Virginia Tech Marie C. Paretti is an Associate Professor of Engineering Education at Virginia Tech, where she co- directs the Virginia Tech Engineering Communications Center (VTECC). Her research focuses on com- munication in engineering design, interdisciplinary communication and collaboration, design education, and gender in engineering. She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring com- munication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work includes studies on the teaching and learning of communication

 in­depth look at the effectiveness of the information literacy approach.  This has helped to ensure that student and librarian time are being spent most efficiently and with the greatest impact.  For continuous improvement ongoing assessments and modifications to the library instruction session and related student assignments are planned (e.g. a resources type awareness and recognition quiz).  Also, librarians would like to collaborate further with the engineering departments to apply information literacy rubric analyses to capstone senior design projects. This would inform librarians, faculty members, and other stakeholders as to how students are able to apply the information literacy knowledge and skills gained in previous courses with an open
