Articles by Maurer Faculty

Workplace Information Needs Of Engineering And Technology Graduates: A Case Study On Two Continents, Margaret Phillips, Michael Fosmire, Marco Schirone, Christina Johansson, Frederick Berry

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research

In this research category, work-in-progress study, the authors conducted eleven semi-structured interviews of employers (five from the United States and six from Sweden), in order to determine the information literacy skills and habits needed by engineering and technology graduates. The authors found similar information needs at both the Swedish and American corporations. They found that, while the core information literacy principles of identifying an information need, locating, accessing, evaluating, integrating, and documenting are valuable skills for students to have, they need to be translated to accommodate the socially constructed information landscapes of each corporation and the more fluid and subtle …

An Early Look At A Scoping Review Of Systematic Review Methodologies In Engineering, Jason Reed, Margaret Phillips, Amy Van Epps, Dave Zwicky

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research

This research work-in-progress paper is a scoping review of published systematic literature reviews (SLRs) in engineering. SLRs are considered one of the highest levels of proof for evidence based decision making, but they are only as good as the methods used, starting with the search strategy. With studies described as “systematic literature reviews” proliferating through engineering disciplines, including engineering education, it is necessary to examine how well these studies reflect a methodologically sound understanding of established SLR processes. The initial search returned 4,992 results, after removing duplicates. After completing the abstract review, we included 2,674 results for full text review. …
