The document discusses how an organization called CILASS promotes inquiry-based learning and information literacy at the University of Sheffield. It provides two scenarios where academic departments want to improve student skills and seeks advice. For the first scenario, involving a new student induction, mentors guide small groups to explore resources and produce a poster. For the second scenario, about embedding skills in seminars, collaborative tasks were designed responding to information literacy skills and new online tutorials were created.
