- Integrating Intercultural Competencies in an Introductory Business Information Literacy Course Annette Bochenek Heather Howard Zoeanna Mayhook Business Introductory Courses Information Literacy Business Education Intercultural Communication Cultural Pluralism Interpersonal Competence Academic Libraries Librarians Universities Evaluation Methods Library Instruction Scoring Rubrics Learning Activities Librarians at a large Midwestern university integrated intercultural competencies into an information literacy course taught annually to over 100 first-year business students. The interventions aim to improve intercultural skills and characteristics as defined by the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AACU) Intercultural Knowledge and Competence VALUE Rubric. Student intercultural competencies were assessed via online surveys according to the VALUE Rubric, comparing pre-, retrospective, and post-self-assessments. Students' intercultural competencies changed as a result of engaging with the course material. This paper describes the classroom interventions implemented by librarians, results from survey data analysis, and implications for library instruction.
