© American Society for Engineering Education, 2010 Learning with the Students: Chemical Engineering Students Help Design and Shape Delivery of Instructional Information for Their DisciplineAbstractDuring the last year and a half, the West Virginia University Libraries purchased LibGuides, aweb-based subject guide template, to make important research and study information available inone convenient place for our students and faculty. The engineering librarian decided to focus onchemical engineering for the first focused engineering guide. The development of the guidebecame an opportunity to invite senior chemical engineering students to participate in suggestingcontent for the guide and to use and critique

broached appeared unfamiliar to them, even though, in somecases, they had even provided instruction on some of those concepts. This provides a wonderfulnew opportunity for collaboration between the libraries and the ECET department as they wrestlewith the most effective ways to integrate lifelong learning and information literacy throughoutthe curriculum. The liaison’s work on the subcommittee and attendance at the faculty meetingshave provided the groundwork for this library involvement in future course revisions and maywell prove to have the most impact on information literacy as the curriculum is enacted.

TEAMWORK AS A CORE COMPETENCE IN CONSTRUCTION AND ENGINEERING EDUCATION Saeed Rokooei, Raheleh Miralami, George FordAbstract The specialization of careers in various industries has created a multitude of professional networks that demand close collaboration between parties when working toward a common goal. Additionally, the exponential growth of information technology has evolved with the workflows among various entities involved in a project. Therefore, professionals in various construction or engineering positions must work with their peers closely to form teams. As an interpersonal skill set, the ability to work in teams is gaining

(see below). 4A "strong-program” interpretation of the ABET criteria would stress the importance not just of"supplementing” technical coursework with courses in the humanities and social sciences, butrather building more direct, systematic, and coherent links between the technical andnontechnical components of engineering education. Thus, by this interpretation, a strong liberal-arts foundation would be one that offers at least some coursework which explicitly integratestechnical, social, and ethical analysis/problem-solving. Ideally, such coursework would also bedeveloped and taught collaboratively (to some degree at least) by technical and nontechnicalengineering faculty
