our results surprised us, revealing that students’ initial information-seeking behaviorcan accommodate credible sources but that students may not be actively evaluating them;additional results demonstrated that teaching these skills in a first-year course can beconsiderably effective, but there remain unanswered questions about exactly what such teachingaccomplishes. These insights will certainly influence how we improve the design of futureversions of this course, and suggest valuable opportunities to improve this kind of teaching inengineering programs and clarify accreditation criteria to support such teaching in the future.Review of Relevant LiteratureThere is relatively little research about how and where first-year engineering students

Countries are addressing this challenge in various ways, based on theirhigher education systems and the interests of government and the private sector. Onthe other hand, increasing the challenge on the US side is a recognition that globalawareness is critical in preparing emerging domestic engineers to work in theincreasingly global marketplace.
