: Using the Liaison Librarian Model to Integrate Information Literacy into a Faculty of EngineeringIntroductionThis paper will update our earlier work on an integrated approach to information literacy[1] . Our initial goal was to integrate information literacy into a technical communicationcourse in the Faculty of Engineering and to explore whether two pedagogical outcomeswere achievable within this framework: first, instantiating the benefits of an engineeringresearch report in a field where applications and design exigencies are paramount and,secondly, determining whether engineering research skills – far from being “short-termcompetencies,” as some would suggest [2] – are valuable additions to a student’s learningrepertoire

justof mere mathematical interest. We also felt that the traditional approach, in which the tools for theanalysis of discrete and continuous time signals were taught separately, often in different courses,was misleading the students and preventing them from acquiring an integrated view of signalanalysis. The possibility of offering laboratory courses depends, of course, on the availability of per-sonal computers. We rely on low-cost i486 based machines, running Matlab. We have found thatMatlab provides an easy to learn yet powerful interface, and a powerful set of commands to dealwith graphics, signals, and systems. Although we can not present a final evaluation of this experience yet, we may alreadyreport that the students reacted
