This community of practice is leading thedevelopment of additional workshops, implementation of an assessment/evaluation framework todocument the effect of active learning as this continues and expands through SCSE, writing grantproposals to enable further dissemination of the multidisciplinary cohort model approach acrossa college of engineering and science, and supporting each other’s individual research endeavors.IntroductionThis paper describes Work in Progress (WIP) efforts to increase active learning in a college ofengineering and science.

HSOLstudents interact in real time with HF2F students and with the instructor.

The series, called “You andYour Career: A series on Mentoring and Professional Development”, included seven talks andconversations related to mentoring and the mentoring relationship9. Instead of taking the benefitsof mentoring as a given, UCSB librarians engaged in thoughtful dialogue about the possibleadvantages. Several sessions also provided a forum for librarians achieving success in specificareas (e.g. professional association leadership, grant writing, research) to discuss theirachievements thereby positioning themselves as possible mentors in these areas. UCSB’smethods not only gave librarians a forum to critically evaluate the purpose and outcomes ofmentoring but also promoted a “culture of mentoring
