Through the ILE project, librarians and course instructors collaborate to design an additional component of an existing research project that directly addresses the information literacy elements required to complete the project. For each course, an online page is crafted and divided into components mapped to the standards of information literacy. The page features objectives for each standard, a customizable series of online tutorials, and multiple ways to assess the student's ability to learn and transfer the knowledge into a contextualized application. Further, instructors are given the tools to provide feedback on each assessed component thus addressing demonstrated weak areas of student understanding. Through the ILE project, students learn how to better define a research question or thesis, access scholarly information in a variety of formats, critically evaluate information quality, ethically and legally use information to accomplish a specific purpose, and produce better final products.
