Improving Information Literacy of Engineering Doctorate Based on Team Role Model

The goal of engineering doctorate (EngD) training is a unique educational programme in that improves information literacy of a doctoral study with the needs and innovations of the respective industrial sector. Based on the six core concepts of The Framework of Information Literacy in Higher Education, this paper extracted the specific requirements for the literacy of engineering doctoral students, and proposed to improve their information literacy ability from the comprehensive ability (innovation, leadership, execution). In view of the interdisciplinary integration and innovation of EngD students, this paper proposes an information literacy promotion framework based on team role model, which links the knowledge innovation process, information literacy ability and role positioning, and integrates conventional information literacy cultivation methods and promotion methods into the education process of EngD students. This team role model is illustrated through the use of a case study based on the work of AI electron Microscopy.
