Hack Your Library:Engage students in information literacy through a technology-themed competitionAbstract Hack Dibner is a library competition for engineering students focused on informationliteracy, technology, and user experience. The challenge statement was “To enhance userexperience in the library through technology.” Students were allowed to participate asindividuals or as teams, and were required to submit three deliverables throughout the semester:an initial concept, a written proposal, and a presentation. These deliverables required thestudents to perform a literature review to support their project ideas and to practice crafting anddelivering effective presentations. To hold the students’ interest throughout the semester

This paper reports on theimplementation of this program in academic-year 2017/18 and is meant to serve as an openroadmap for those interested in developing an interdisciplinary community of practice to supportwriting instruction in STEM.In Section II, we describe our institutional context, project background, and preparatory work. InSection III, we describe the central concepts that informed our activities, namely writing-across-the-curriculum approaches to writing instruction, the community of practice notion of sharedknowledge-making, and principles of transdisciplinary action research.

This work extends prior research by King and Kitchener (1994) and others (Baxter Magolda, 1992; Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, & Tarule, 1986; Hofer & Pintrich, 2002; Perry, 1970) about the ways students develop increasingly sophisticated ways of: understanding and conceptualizing knowledge; sources of truth; how to evaluate various opinions and points-of-view; and ways to assess truthfulness and validity of new ideas. This project stems from the proposition that this development process manifests itself somewhat differently in fields that deal with physical sciences than in
