Finally, many engineeringprograms are hesitant to integrate a substantive information literacy component into an alreadyoversaturated first-year curriculum. As a result, many of the in-person ILI programs described inthe literature take the form of large, generic orientation sessions presented in a lecture hall [16].The assessments of these training programs often rely on multiple-choice assessments, whichwhile scaling effectively, cannot provide insights into student achievement of higher level skills[17]. In order to gain more nuanced understandings of student learning, the literature suggestsdesigning authentic
