Inquiry Scholars Collaborative: Growing a Culture of Assessment

This article describes a multi‐institution collaboration to improve student skills in information literacy and inquiry and analysis (as described by the American Association of Colleges & Universities’ VALUE rubrics). The project is unique in that it captures the student voice in all phases of the process—from choosing the kind of inquiry students wish to undertake through communicating with stakeholders about the results of research and assessment initiatives taking place on their campuses.
